Ads are only coming to public channels were channel owners already publish ad messages. Signal is located in USA, so it's quite easy for NSA et al to pressure Signal to implement backdoors.

This comment is downvoted but as a person in the EU I can wholly agree with it. It's not that I never use american made/hosted products but it is definitely a consideration when making a choice. It's not that I don't like Americans, but your government and government agencies have verifiably proven that they don't care about the things I care about.

I mean haven't we learned time after time, leak after leak the EU countries just shove data on their own citizens over to the USA? I feel like you comment is ignoring decades of history.
