        @bunt7 Not sure what MS being the owner of the source forge (GitHub in this case) has to do with the code hosted on there. It is not as if they are going to inject nefarious code during the build process.

        At most the author might object to their code being used for machine learning. But that does not affect you as a user of the app in the least.

          By the way signal itself is hosted on github, it does not give microsoft any power over Signal. And in case of a problem it could switch to gitlab or anything else overnight.

          Think of GitHub as some could storage for code. (But Microsoft cannot change the code without being detected immediately, because developers keep copies of the code on their machines)

            @pparent You are preaching to the choir. I think you meant to reply to @bunt7
