phone number isn’t just any metadata; it is the anchoring data around which the rest of metadata is collected, and it is also connected to govt/corporate verified real identity.
why would anyone even claim to offer privacy around such an anchor ?

Right to repair must apply to cars as well.
… and the worth of human beings insulted.
To insult the Greek gods, obviously. Christ is not enough.
Not to mention, they’re a multi-billion dollar company, don’t make excuses for them.
They pay someone handsomely to make excuses for them.
Maps was crowdsourced like wikipedia. Still is.
It will turn to shit as crowds migrate. And the crowds are migrating.
For an entity hat already has monopoly over violence, how difficult is it to claim monopoly over the collective will?
That’s not why raw milk is purchased, and gizmodo guy is truly an idiot.
Most of the pastuerized milk being sold is also processed in other ways, for example it is homogenised with milk powder to bring fat content to a standardized level.
Raw milk = non-homogenised milk = pure milk/natural milk
And raw milk is boiled and then cooled (superior to pasturisation) in domestic setting, before consumption.
He had to caution the lady about the taste of the bull’s milk.
What how so? They already have taken a deceptive consent from every registered user to show ads profiled on per user basis, and serve numerous clicks on their website that offer ads or ad-like stuff.

I am saying that it was probably sabotaged by Microsoft leaning leadership at Nokia.
Also, despite being Linux core, Android itself was shit in the beginning. Gingerbread (G) was the first edition that won favour with buyers. Hardly any takers of android for its first six versions (A to F). Not even the techy nerds were buying Eclairs.
Around 20 years ago, iOS used to outclass everything by a big margin. Android, Nokia/Symbian, RIM, etc were closer to each other than to Apple. And now …
As of 2024, fresh competition to android is needed.
When Microsoft bought Nokia, Steve Balmer (ex-Microsoft) was at Nokia helm. His work with Nokia was so much in the interest of Microsoft that he was rewarded with head chair of Microsoft not much time later.
Yahoo was the competition as far as space is concerned. Even today, it offers a whopping 1 TB for email.
They also messed up Nokia before killing Windows Phone. Nokia’s Symbian used to be a serious competition to android.
Are you talking about Chrome?
Signal’s use case is “authentic communication”. like when a govt person interacts with other govt person and doesn’t want a second govt to snoop on the actual contents on the communication, but accepts that metadata is public.
It is whatsapp for such people, without being whatsapp.
But then why would you use whatsapp either ?
