    Sms is bad if you care about privacy, but great for voyeurs.

    I frequently send dick pics between two of my phone numbers with fake messages about selling drugs and blowing things up attached, triggering them for a manual review in the government/carrier’s office.

    Signal is very useful for minorities and anyone who’s actually planning a terrorist attack.

      Briar is better for particular dangerous situations, SimpleX is a ‘more confy’ great alternative.

      I don’t send dick pics or plan terrorist attacks, so if voyeurs or Big Gubmint snoop on my texts they’ll be disappointed.
