SignalGate Scandal: The Unauthorized App That Rocked Trump’s Administration
TeleMessage, a spin-off of Signal communication app, has hit pause after hackers breached its defenses. While the original Signal app prioritizes security, TeleMessage’s archiving feature might have left the door wide open. Experts are baffled, and Trump administration officials are left wondering if their secret group chats are not-so-secret after all.
Hot Take:

Forget secrecy; we’re going for transparency, one data breach at a time. Just when you thought it was safe to text your secrets, along comes a hacker with a penchant for drama and a wild sense of humor. Who knew that a messaging app could become the hottest new reality TV show?
