> And the phone numbers for your peers. And the information on how much you talk to each of them, when you do it, where you do it from, whether you transfer attachments, et cetera.
Actually, Signal doesn't have access to any of this data. They're the ONLY encrypted messaging platform that has engineered it so they don't log any of this. They don't know the membership of any Signal groups. They don't even know your name and avatar -- that's part of your encrypted Signal profile.
Read some of the responses to subpeonas that they publish -- ALL they can turn over for a phone number is the account creation date and the last login date https://signal.org/bigbrother/
