Why is it more private than WhatsApp?
- Ar-Curunir 3y agoI encourage you to read the article, but Signal minimizes the metadata it stores about you, doesn't hold on to you contact list, doesn't keep information about your IP address, etc. WhatsApp instead makes tons of money from this kind of metadata.
