Tesla, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:TSLA) Elon Musk, who is very active on Twitter, has in the past recommended Signal, a privately-held encrypted messaging service, to his Twitter followers. He has reiterated his viewpoint through a tweet on Friday.
What Happened: Telegram came under criticism amid the Ukrainian crisis for being a source of misinformation. Signal's founder Moxie Marlinspike saw an opportunity here and took a dig at Telegram, which is quite popular in Ukraine. "Telegram has a lot of compelling features, but in terms of privacy and data collection, there is no worse choice," Marlinspike said in a tweet.
