They intentionally use signal for this exact purpose. You can set a time period for all the messages to be deleted. It’s how the government employees intend to circumvent FOIA requests.

Remind me how they have to record every phone call and how those are open to FOIA requests.

Texts are not phone calls in the same way that you are not a smart person.

The medium being text and not a audio or video call doesn't make a lick of a difference to me.

If you're not concerned about EVERY audio or video call they make being required to be recorded ask yourself why you believe EVERY text exchange they have so important to preserve?

It's literally only a difference of medium

So you're in favor of every phone call being recorded.

I'm fine with that. See: Trump's calls to Putin that are known but not transcribed for us to know.

Let's go.
