Although I think people like us (?) were some of the original proponents of Signal, and it could never have spread without us, I believe Signal's intention is more about capturing the wider market while simultaneously changing that market to be more privacy-aware. I think that they believe they can make private, encrypted messaging to be a household idea, and I hope they're right.
