“When you use Signal, your data is stored in encrypted form on your devices. The only information that is stored on the Signal servers for each account is the phone number you registered with, the date and time you joined the service, and the date you last logged on.”
This isn’t an ad, I wasn’t paid for this post. Just to clear the air: fuck facebook, fuck elon musk and twitter, fuck anyone who thinks this is a paid advertisement. I wish I was paid for this shit, I just wanted to spread the word. Thank you. 😀 👍
My main messaging app is telegram, what would be the advantage in moving to signal? ( Pretending I manage to convince at least my main contacts )
Telegram chats aren’t e2ee by default. You’re essentially putting your chats on a server owned by a rich Russian person as a hobby.
There’s the rub. Unless privacy is your highest priority there isn’t any advantage. I wish I could convince my main contacts to move but convenience is a higher priority for them.
