Why is Signal positioning itself as a solution when Rosenfeld admits it’s not ready?



They're not. They released something as a stopgap measure that will help some, but not all, people in Iran get back on the app, because their better, longer-term solution is not ready, and they believed that people there needed at least something in the short term.


That something could easily get them killed.


They must already have been killed then. Clearly there are relevant numbers of users using Signal before the TLS proxy was published.
