The state is pissed that they cannot read all your private conversations anymore.

    Yeah it’s getting crazy. Next thing it will be scanning for guns or “misinformation” to put you on some kind of list. Glad to see Signal sticking up to this bullshit, quite a rare sight in today’s industries. I feel at some point though Signal will crack or the gov could do harm to it because it is unfortunately centralized, but I think it will be a while before that happens. They have to boil the frog slowly.

      are there decentralized alternatives to Signal? I hope Signal wins this fight, but if they don’t we should start planning

        SimpleX has been looking really great, I use it all the time it’s better than Signal technologically and the fact you don’t need a phone number but the app is not as polished yet

          dope, I’ll have to take a look at them. I’m a UX designer so maybe I’ll try to see if I can contribute to the polish
