@tallship You're welcome :)

TBH I still don't get how any entity could farm particular aspects of any user. Could you please elaborate on this?

My understanding is that the only publicly available information is whether or not a given phone number is registered with Signal. And the only information Signal has on its users, and that can be subpoena'd, is the time of account creation and time of last connection to the server.

Sure :) if be happy to.

Since she had my DID (phone number) in her contact database, she (apparently) received an alert when she installed Signal informing her that I was also a Signal. user.

I had previously blocked her phone number so she couldn't call me over the PSTN from her number, and I did just let the signal message sit there for eternity (still there, but I use Matrix or OMEMO enabled XMPP almost exclusively nowadays.

Unless she bothered to call from another phone...
