   If you're a journalist who used AT&T between May 1-October 31, 2022, you're going to want to revisit your call and text history from that time and see which of your sources you were communicating with. These records have been improperly secured by AT&T. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2024/07/12/att-data-breach-who-affected-what-to-do/74379292007/

     The AT&T breach underscores the importance of being mindful of call and text metadata — something Signal handles much better than traditional phone calls and texts. Unlike your telecom provider, Signal doesn't retain logs of your calls and texts on their servers. Your activities are stored on your device and with anyone you speak to. https://freedom.press/training/signal-beginners/
