   The security flaw is not in Moxie's Axolotl protocol, but in the #WhatsApp implementation. Signal software doesn't have this flaw, it doesn't automatically re-key messages and just refuse to deliver. I doubt Moxie has control over the WhatsApp implementation.

     I'm no fan of Moxie's position on keeping Signal in a non- #FAIF silo. Yes, federating a communications medium is hard; and federating a communications medium *securely* may only be possible for sufficiently low values of "secure".
