I suppose generic communication channels have a lot of noise for Big Brother monitors. When someone exchanges Retriever links though, monitors will know that some "secret" is being shared and can focus on potential targets more easily, with a noise filter.

My point was assuming proper e2e encryption, so Big Brother can't know it's a retriever link. It also can't know it's an actual secret
