    The fact that all these communications were pulled from GMail and presumably known to law enforcement for years shows its not signal.

      Email is never private. The protocol is not secure. You have to add an encryption layer on top to get that, and it’s annoying to manage.

        The point I’m making is Gmail is in the cloud and the feds got all the logs. Encryption is one way to protect email. Another is use a server in another jurisdiction. But neither is comparable to Signal.

      Why does everyone keep saying Gmail? Did no one read his email address? It clearly says Yahoo…

        Epstein had other email addresses like jeevacation@gmail.com. It largely doesn’t matter other than it being kind of stupid to be using a US based cloud email server when the warrants come in.
