        Sorry ur right. But yeah as u said they could be running anything. Im confident in the fact they cant read messages just not so confident they arent collecting metadata capable of building a social graph. Sealed sender doesnt do much good when u have a centralised server.

      The server is Foss. However, that means nothing as you still be using it. Best to not trust it and use ee2e which is what Signal does.

      Signal is really a fancy version of SMS and MMS. It does require a phone number but contacts don’t need that you contact you. There are better options from a anonymity perspective but they aren’t as user friendly and popular.
