I share _wmd's concerns here. The _last_ thing I want is to be "contacted by brands" on Signal. And while I know I can manage _my_ experience with Signal, I don't want Signal to become a place where my friends avoid because it turns into a cesspit of "brand engagement" like so many other services... (Which sucks a bit for WhisperSystems since I'm not paying them, and I don't want them to take money off Pepsi/TMobile/McDonalds in return for "access to me" either...)
