Why would the CIA bother?

Context?

  • Some people believe that there's the CIA is behind Signal.

    • The CIA certainly uses Signal, which is why privacy advocates who think the US government will go after it are idiots. Same thing for Tor.

  • I'm being cheeky and implying that the reason signal's active backend is not disclosed as hoped for in a prior poster's comment is because the CIA (or other intelligence) is involved in it.
