Good idea overall, unfortunately they still have your IP and phone number which means Europeans are still implicated
Signal doesn't collect IPs and therefore can't even hand them out. It's been requested in 2021. Here's a list of requests from authorities they were allowed to publish. I've looked through 3 of the most recent and nowhere do they reveal IPs.
Sure they don't log the IPs, but it is technically impossible to not know the IP when you're running a centralized service.
I wrote a comment here about why sealed sender does not achieve what it purports to.
I didn't know that. Thanks
