Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?
Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?
I remember a time when visiting a website that opens a javacript dialog box asking for your name so the message "hi <name entered>" could be displayed was baulked at.
Why does signal want a phone number to register? Is there a better alternative?

I think it's important to remember de difference between being private and being anonymous. Signal IS private. It's not anonymous. The same is true for many other apps/services.
Personally I like to be private. I don't really need to be anonymous.
