Unlike Whatsapp, Signal doesn’t store your network of contacts. They have your phone number, time of registration, and time of last connect to their servers. They go to great lengths to keep the rest private. In Signal’s case, I don’t see an issue at all, but I do see all the benefit.

Because the one in the US is working out so well for humanity right?

Fuck Silicon Valleys. Use and support open standards and software.

I feel like if most websites chose not to comply, there’s fuck all the government could do tbh. What are they gonna do? Fine big tech with a slap on the wrist again? Try to shut down every indie hentai site hosted in the Congo or something? Please… it’s all absurd.
