> Signal is centralized. So this company operating in EU, under EU laws, will have to do the scanning too.

The Signal CEO has repeated that they will rather leave the EU than start doing the scanning.

We will see...

		Yeah, I agree. We will see what happens. Words are just words as far as I know but the prospect of leaving the EU for Signal would really send a strong message to all those who still believe that the EU is better in terms of privacy than the US. As far as I am concerned this is the nail in the coffin for the EU privacy advocates/ evangelists.
