 I spoke with @Aditi_muses of the Hindustan Times about Signal's commitment to privacy in India and everywhere, the challenges of committing to privacy in the context of a tech industry driven by surveillance, and why metadata is not an afterthought.

 @24fe2880 Signal: the only chat app currently worth a damn. I’ve basically put everyone I know into headlocks over the last seven years until they all joined me on there, dozens of them. Delete WhatsApp and anything owned by Meta. Your friends and family will eventually follow you to Signal. Hold that headlock strong! Thx so much to Moxie for lighting it and Meredith and everyone at Signal for keeping it burning. It means a lot to me.
