    This woman has a spine of iron and more integrity than half the world’s politicians put together:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meredith_Whittaker

    We’re fortunate to have her guiding policy for Signal. Clearly she’s gathering people who see things the way she does:

    In response to the amendments, Udbhav Tiwari, Signal’s vice president of strategy and global affairs, said that “creating a much weaker version of our product that collects all of this metadata, the choice for us, unfortunately, would be starkly clear: We will not make changes to our product.”

    You should listen to her speak:

    Signal president on the future of free speech | Meredith Whittaker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hUoq0QlhZI

    KC: “Do you think that there might be a push on Signal? There might be pressure put on Signal to try and start collecting data at any point in time? Is that a danger that you could be potentially facing?”

    MW: “Well, let me put it this way, not on my watch.”

    Thanks Meredith, at least someone defends privacy that can get headlines.

    I don’t understand what pulling out of Canada would mean?

      Same thing as PornHub “pulling out” of certain states - if geolocation matches, do not provide service
