I remember when I told all my friends they should use Signal. I got one person to try it for a couple days.

It was honestly super awesome when Apple was telling the FBI to F off when they wanted to unlock that shooter’s phone. Now of course I don’t trust Apple personally, but normal people deserve the right to privacy too and they’re about to lose that. If we don’t stop that now, we’re next.
