It’s the end of an era, Signal will now respond to subpoenas and hand over phone numbers when given usernames. I’ve seen first hand how this worked with Wire. Subpoenas come in in high numbers and you can’t fight them all.
The only advantage Signal has over Wire is that usernames are not necessarily visible to contacts. But the problem is still there.https://theintercept.com/2024/03/04/signal-app-username-phone-number-privacy/
