Signal and Telegram are big for privacy and freedom enthusiasts but has anyone ever wondered why both of those apps ask for SO many permissions? 🧐 The amount of data they ask for seems a bit unnecessary. I think they're just a couple more big tech big brother programs raking in people's data while pretending not to. Just my suspicion.
Telegram = 59 permissions
Signal = 68 permissions
Fun fact... did you guys know that the CEO of Telegram is featured on the WEF's website?
