Wow I didn't realize that Signal is run on Amazon's servers and that they contract with the CIA. This article has some interesting points to mitigate the privacy concerns of this real popular service: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/signal-messenger-guide-to-avoid-privacy-mistakes/
Signal takes steps to reduce the amount of metadata visible, like sealed sender which makes it so that Signal doesn't know who sent a message. Even your payment information for donations is separated from your identity so that they know you are a donor, but not how you donated.
It desn't matter if Signal were hosted on Putin's personal servers. Its security is in its protocol, it's not trust based.
As long the encryption and everything else they do is as good as independant audits say they are, none of this matters, does it.
The only thing they know about any user is when the account was created, and when it was last online. That's all they're able to hand to law enforcement
Pretty obvious contents, strange premise and even fud'ier title....
Just use Matrix/Element or Session or Briar or Jami or Threema lol
No, use SimpleX.
Damn it I knew I was forgetting one
eh, its better than discord and it was hard to convince people to use signal, even as convenient as it is.
