Even if I am not the target userbase of Signal, which is partly true, by using it, I benefit those who really need it for its privacy features.
The millions of users like me who do nothing sensitive with it add bulk to traffic, making it harder to single out "interesting" data. I mean, for example, if only criminals used Signal, just having the app will get you a lot of attention from the police, as it happened with Encrochat.
