I saw some threads here about Telegram and piracy stuff being banned. So, as an experimental alternative, I created a public Signal group for piracy.

Maybe it’ll be useful?

Before joining

Signal supports usernames and hiding telephone numbers. Here’s a blog entry on how to do so. You might want to:

  • set a username
  • change your profile name (these are two separate things!)
  • hide your phone number

    What makes you think Signal is maintaining relationship maps, and secondly, even if it is, is there any evidence they’re included in LEO subpoenas?

      There is no evidence. safety is about staying multiple steps ahead and risk mitigation when possible.

      Centralized servers are a single point of failure that could be compromised in the future.

      My contact’s devices they use signal on are insecure and could be easily compromised in the future.

      SMS/Cell network in general are insecure as hell and I avoid it as much as possible.

      Why would I expose all that sensitive data when there’s literally no need to? Simplex works great for me.
