Signal faced problem, Elon Musk came to rescue
Recently the app “Signal” is facing problems due to the large installation of the app worldwide even more than its capacity. This created a problem for the users and also for Signal.
Signal, an encrypted messaging service, witnessed a sudden rise in its download and usage more than ever. After the rival app, Whatsapp was caught in controversy. A single Tweet of Musk pointing directly towards WhatsApp’s new privacy policy resulted in a great influx of users on the platform.
The company said that- “Signal is experiencing technical difficulties. We are working hard to restore service as quickly as possible.”
The company is figuring out the problem and finding a solution. But after the Tweet, the download and usage exceeded even their most optimistic projections.
We have been adding new servers and extra capacity at a record pace every single day this week nonstop, but today exceeded even our most optimistic projections. Millions upon millions of new users are sending a message that privacy matters. We appreciate your patience.
