As Signal get your phone number. Can we considerate this application as private ? What’s your thoughts about it ? I’m also using SimpleX, ElementX, Threema, but not much people using it…

Cheers

      Quick googling comes up with only people refuting this claim.

      Sure, we had signal gate, but the way that was received should make it pretty clear that it’s not supported for official use.

        Not supported for official use because it leaves no trace for the formal record. Not because Signal is insecure.

      Relatively popular, supposedly secure, based in usa, haven’t been raided by gestapo. There is a contradiction in here.
