This is sadly hilarious

Hacked networks will need to be burned ‘down to the ground’

"Agencies will often have to conduct sensitive government business on Signal, WhatsApp and other encrypted smartphone apps," notes the Associated Press.

Signal, WhatsApp and other encrypted smartphone apps [such as Apple Messenges — Ed.] are the very apps many in the U.S. Administration and Congress have been clamoring to reign in, require backdoors to, or even downright ban on grounds of national security and law enforcement. (WhatsApp, being owned by Facebook, is a little wobbly to begin with.) The fact they might now be necessary for conducting sensitive government business is nigh on to priceless, a little glitter of levity in an otherwise overwhelmingly sad tale.

Are you paying attention, FBI?
