To allege that Signal exerts a #PonziScheme is invidious.

#CharlesPonzi did not invent this fraudulous #PyramidScheme in the 1920s.
It was a #queer #woman from #Berlin, DE, #AdeleSpitzeder, 50 years earlier, in 1869.

Let's give this ingenious woman her hard-earned credit! Better say: "Signal deploys a #SpitzederScheme." That would only be fair!
