Apple was saving notifications on the device storage, which provides a way for forensics to extract some of the past messages.

    Wasn't my point. What's going on with Signal to tell the story of accessing deleted Signal messages (and multiple other Signal hack/ bug/exploit headlines I'vs seen within a short time frame) when this is exactly zero about Signal?

    I remember an article (read it somewhere around 10 days ago) where something was used to access Signal messages of a defendant in a case regarding an attack (shooting I think) on a ICE concentration camp. Might be this, but I'm not sure.
