Comment on Using Signal groups for activism

  Your profile, like everything else on Signal, is also end-to-end encrypted. Your name and profile picture do get shared with whoever you chat with, groups or individuals. If you don't want your name and profile picture shared with randos, either don't set them or don't chat with randos.

    That’s fine if one of those ends isn’t a public activism group.

    I use Signal to talk to people in real life, both personally and professionally. I don’t want to message them from some sort of unidentifiable alias.

    or don’t chat with randos.

    That was my point, thank you.
