It really just depends on which country/company you’d trust more with your data imo. Like even on the comparison site https://www.securemessagingapps.com/, there isn’t a single company with non-iffy company and infrastructure jurisdiction, and one would have to manually check the funding section since they list Signal as good on there (as they obviously haven’t checked that one of the funders has fed connections).

Signal’s got fed connections, though, iirc.

No, the rules weren’t even implemented in the first place. It’s still in the phase of public consultation.

These new ‘rules’ are only in the phase of public consultation right now. So this is like a non-story in the first place. Also, from what I understand, the youth wing is very engaged.
