    What exactly is Signal supposed to do here?

    They’re not supposed to be able to help in any way, how would they determine if a specific user is using Signal for phishing or whatever without decrypting their chats?

    Being European would make zero difference here, unless the European service is backdoored.

      Yay, signal is great because they do everything in their power to not only not spy on you, but not be able to. But boo, they are bad, because they won’t spy on other people for us!
