Now if I were an Iranian dissident, I would be reasonably confident Signal is designed to withstand the Iranian regime’s interception efforts (but not necessarily traffic analysis). If I were someone on the US government’s shitlist like Edward Snowden or Julian Assange, my calculus would be entirely different. (Yes, I know Snowden has endorsed Signal)
Except Snowden said he uses the app everyday and is still alive. OTF money doesn't come with strings attached, if you can _prove_ otherwise, you might actually have something valuable to contribute to this conversation, but now it's just words that should be dismissed as conspiratorial.
