There are all sorts of criminals on apps like signal thanks to their privacy they should be banned
Really like Signal, it’s a great app 👍🏼
Hopefully more apps and companies improve on user privacy and data protections
Already done
Ah, Signal's president is a woman. That is why that particular app was dragged down by the MAGA regime. This is what bullies do – commit their crimes within their target's periphery in order to do double damage in one effort.
🎉
inspiring eloquence: it's great to use privacy focused services like Signal 🌟
Thank you!
