MODERATORS
Even then, you're jumping to the conclusion that
a) Signal sends this data to the NSA and b) Signal doesn't protect phone numbers in somr way
Neither of these do I care about enough to keep entertaining this conversation. Goodbye.
Assuming that data that can be leaked is being leaked is the only sensible thing to do if you care about privacy. Clearly this is too difficult a concept for you to wrap your head around.
Thanks for at least being honest that you don't actually care about privacy. Bye.
Aint this is the rule among cryptography types anyway?
Right, and it's strange to me that such a fundamental rule is being ignored when it comes to Signal. All of a sudden people start making all kinds of excuses as to why it's not a problem in this case.
