> I can't do that with Whatsapp because it's closed source. I can't do that with Signal because nobody has Signal. Everyone has email.

Are you saying the install base for people who use GPG with e-mail is larger than the user base for Signal, or are you saying you can send people instructions for decrypting e-mail but for some reason not instructions for installing Signal?
