Signal puts a lot of effort into their threat model that assumes a hostile host (i.e. AWS). That's the whole point of end to end encryption, even if the host is compromised the attackers do not get any information. They even go as far as padding out the lengths of encrypted messages so everyone looks like they are sending identical blocks of data

Important to note that this is a 1 percentage point increase. Linux went from 1.8% of steam users to 2.8%. A 55.6% relative increase.
