No, Cellebrite Cannot “Break Signal Encryption”

It isn’t shameful. It is yet another indicator that the journalism industry is creating the intellectual equivalent of Animal Crossing.

It’s a time waster that entertains- not a reflection of truth. How could any business be considered “the best” in its field and create such a shitty product? Simplest explanation: they are not trustworthy and never were.

This is not due to incompetence. This is done with the objective to influence the public opinion of cryptographic tools so that people will stop using them. The system has no way of actually breaking encryption, that's why it is focusing on the other ways to circumvent it - one of them being making most people (non-experts) believe that it doesn't work anyway so they will stop using it.

This is a focused campaign, this is not just random occurence of incompetence.

This is a focused campaign

What's the evidence for this?
