It isn't private. Was literally built/sponsored by NSA and CIA to the tune if tens of million USD per year until recently. And before you argue: 1) the information is public 2) no, I won't spoon feed and you look up yourself 3) CIA doesn't admit they spy on you. Yet is safe to consider they aren't sponsoring that messenger for our benefit and their main reason to exist is intelligence gathering 4) no point offending, nor stating half-truths on behalf of your agency employer. You do your thing, I do mine.

Never said you can't use it. Just pointed the fact it was developed in tandem with intelligence agencies and financed every single year of existence by them. Just in case the obvious name "signal" isn't obvious enough of inside joke as it is. Couldn't care less to convince you about my career profile. Just do whatever you want with fantastic piece of .. tech 😆
It's ubiquitous (network effect) and kinda sorta secure-ish, better than just sms via telecom at least. <shrug> Do I smell a heavy encryption, POW required, WOT enabled secure encrypted messaging platform coming? 🤔
