Gregory's Server@structed @ethanschoonover what stood out to me is that using signal is "subscribing to an ideology" that has some potential downsides, but somehow using FAANG-type messenger is not? I can see way more, and much clearer downsides of "big tech" than the nebulous potential downsides of signal, but ok.
@structed @ethanschoonover also, I say this as someone who is explicitly not a fan of signal, because I believe it is a mistake to allow a single entity to dictate how we message/contact people, even if signal is still doing a lot of things right. But none of the interesting and complicated ethical questions are asked, let alone attempted to be answered in that crappy excuse for an article.
