     Hey y'all - be careful with the Signal app. I use it for confidential communications, but it has a new bug where it sends messages to the wrong person! It's happened to me a number of times this week, and now I've learned from my podcast engineer that it's happening to him, too.

     It's a shame because I specifically use Signal (and its disappearing messages) for privacy. Now, it's the one app I will not use for them. Very risky to know your message may go to a random other contact!
