No one said anything about legal guilt. It's generally good practice not to associate with fraudsters if you care about your reputation though.

“Guilt by association” doesn’t imply legal guilt? It’s a common euphemism and it fits exactly what you’re describing.

Signal has often valued being technically correct over pandering to media narratives for marketing reasons.

Whats "technically correct"? You think making a money sending feature using a currency that has random 1000% swings from fraudsters is "technically correct"? It's fucking useless garbage is what it is. Good thing their users didn't buy into the fraud seeing how this scam has no volume (ironically enabling this scam).

Rage against it all you want, people are judged by the company they keep. Ideally not in court rooms, but in everyday life? Abso-fucking-lutely. You don't have to like it but that's how life works.
