On its 10th anniversary, Signal’s president wants to remind you that the world’s most secure communications platform is a nonprofit. It’s free. It doesn’t track you or serve you ads. It pays its engineers very well. And it’s a go-to app for hundreds of millions of people.
Does signal meta data allow for signal to time stamp witu who you communicate using their app and servers?
Side note, PR like that costs about 15k fyi
No. They use your phone number as your identifier (unfortunately, probably for spam evasion) and the only piece of metadata they keep is the last time that # connected to the server.
We know this because Signal has disclosed subpoenas publicly.
No its not.
…and? My question remains.
@yogthos@lemmy.ml what you got to say for this one?
Verge doesn’t run flulf for free. This is PR 101. But I trust you bro
The Verge makes money the same way almost every modern media publication does; advertising to their readers.
