I read on a privacy-oriented website that Wire was purchased by an American company not trusted for its record on privacy (or perhaps it was that since the company is American, their data can be read by the US govt.). I can't find it now though. There isn't anything mentioning it on the website of `www.privacytools.io`: https://www.privacytools.io/software/real-time-communication...

I never continued with Wire cause... nobody uses it, even less people use it than Signal. I think Keybase is the next best thing to some extent.

That seems unlikely, since they just raised 8MM a few weeks ago.
