Important to note here that the FBI was able to access the chat because of an informant who was in the chat.
Your Signal chats are only secure if you know and trust the people in them.
But be careful not to spread this in a way that makes people think "Signal is not really encrypted." Unhelpful.

People have referred to CECOT, the Salvadoran gulag, as “The Prison that Nobody Leaves.” That’s one reason (of many) that it was so concerning that the Trump regime was renditioning people there with no due process. Indeed, most had no criminal record at all. This is why there were concerns that it would, in fact, be impossible to ever get Kilmar Abrego Garcia (who goes by Kilmar Abrego) back: because El Salvador’s dictator, Nayib Bukele, would never let anyone out to say what they had seen.
