I use to when working but now that I am semi-retired there isn’t much point to it. I stopped using Signal, Telegram and Whatsapp but it looks like I might be going back to Whatsapp. After reading about the incursion by China into the American phone lines I remember reading about a article that the Register had back in April about “Feds finally decide to do something about years-old SS7 spy holes in phone networks” https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/02/fcc_ss7_security/ and wondered if this how China managed in infiltrate the Telco’s phone system since any of the articles I have read doesn’t give an explanation of how China did it. Hopefully they will fix SS7 and Diameter to.
