Twitter Twists the Signal: Mysterious Link Block Sparks Speculation and Frustration
Social media platform X (formerly Twitter) is blocking Signal.me links, claiming it’s to prevent spam or malware. This has sparked speculation about political motivations, as Signal is popular among federal whistleblowers. The mystery deepens, with critics pondering if blocking Signal.me is X’s version of a digital whoopee cushion.
Hot Take:
Well, folks, it seems like X (formerly known as Twitter, or Twitbook, or whatever its next name is going to be) has decided to ghost Signal.me links faster than you can say, “Where’s my blue checkmark?” It’s almost like they’re playing a game of ‘Guess Who’ with URLs, and Signal.me just drew the short straw. Who knew sharing phone numbers the old-fashioned way would become vintage again?
Key Points:
- X is blocking links to Signal.me, citing spam or malware risks.
- Other Signal links like Signal.org and Signal.group are not affected.
- The block doesn’t impact other messaging services’ links, like Telegram.
- Speculation arises that the block might be politically motivated.
- Users can still click previously posted Signal.me links, but with a warning.
