I can’t believe how many Congress members are being suckered into defending this scam app. You’d think their staffers would be smarter than this.

Having seen the shit they spew I would never make an assumption of congress members or their staffers being intelligent. They are however bought out for relatively cheap.
What's a scam about it? It's just a Matrix server with an iMessage bridge.
If they're just slapping the same "registration data" across 20-30 devices at a time I'm sure that is causing insecurities. All of this habub because cellular companies use a horribly outdated standard dor text communication.
