A link preview vulnerability in Teams vs a backdoor for China. I choose the vulnerability!

At work we were briefed in detail by spy from CSIS to avoid Zoom. I trust the Canadian spy before a trust I company with CCP ties.

The only thing I can add from that briefing is avoid Zoom, Huawei and product from Facebook, use Telegram if you can and Teams or Google current messaging solution if you can't.



Why Telegram specifically? Wouldn't Signal be considered a more private/secure messenger?


As a daily user of Signal, it still has a long way to go before it can be considered a user-friendly cross-platform solution.


> use Telegram

also from CSIS briefing?


I guess I misremebered it migth have been signal or matrix ... I am sure about the informal recommendation of things to avoid but I'm not so sure anymore about the informally recommanded list of things to use ...
