The Message App CEO Signal, Moxie Marlinspike, announced earlier this week that he will step down from the company's leadership role, which will be filled by co-founder of WhatsApp, Brian Acton, according to what reveals the 9to5mac.
According to the disclosed information, Acton will fill this position temporarily, that is, until the company finds a new CEO for the position. However, it is entirely possible that the former WhatsApp leader will be considered for the position.
