Agree that the majority of users desire for anonymity is without merit, but so is requiring users to identify themselves.
If a user is willing to put up with a less useful and usable version of Signal - they should be allowed to use it without identifying themselves.
Beyond this issue, there are others that me show a troubling pattern. For example, Moxie has refused to post a "warrant canary" for US National Security Letters.
In spirit, I like Moxie, in practice, I feel like he's the captain of ship flying a false flag.

OWS recently received a subpoena and fought to be able to publish it (and their response), the only data they could provide were registration and last contact timestamps.
