Is it still viable to use Signal for privacy in 2026? It’s centralized, and has had many suspicious occurrences in the past.(Unopen source server code, careless whisper exploit which is still active as far as I know, and the whole mobile coin situation.)
Thoughts?
But that’s precisely what makes the whole thing cultish in a negative sense. A decade ago you could make the argument that Signal was doing something special, but that hasn’t been the case for a long time. The continued adherence to the app is utterly irrational today.
