Indeed, at some point in time a byte has to move from point A to point B, and unless you random VPN to a different location the source and destination IPs can be identified.
Even if they can't read it, a hostile government won't care.
There is only so much you can do against a really determined adversary thats well funded. I just want a Signal that doesn't tie everything back to a phone number.
But if so, doesn't signal still know that alice and bob are communicating because it's transferring messages between them? Even if Bob doesn't log in IP B is still sending payloads that eventually get delivered to IP A, and if law enforcement later asks signal for logs they could be correlated.
