“... #Signal can’t interoperate with another messaging platform, without them raising their #privacy bar significantly... Because we don’t just encrypt the #contents of messages... We encrypt #metadata, ... your profile #name, your profile #photo, who’s in your #contact list, #who you talk to, #when you talk to them. That would need to be the level of privacy and security agreed across the board... before we could consent to interoperate.”
