If you are interesting enough, Signal doesn't help at all. Some nation state will have NSO infect your mobile device with Pegasus and record everything you type, say and do.

People need to understand this. There is no solution for mobile device compromise other than to stop using these devices.

And if you cannot stop using them, then you must understand that everything you type, say and do on or around your mobile device is (or will be) public. So treat it like a public device at all times.

Sure, but just because nation states can hack you doesn't mean you should throw your hands up and give up on keeping your data as secure as possible. There are non-state actors who would love to get their hands on your data for profit.
