Like someone said the point is they can see the fact that you sent a secured message period. Not with the guardian app though.
The entire point of the article in the OP is that you can send secured messages with The Guardian app. 🤦♂️

Yes, the guardian app allows you to send encrypted messages through their app to their journalists. 100,000 people check the news, one person is whistleblowing. That one person’s messaging traffic is mixed in with the regular news data, so it’s not possible to tell which of those 100,000 people are the source. Signal messages travel through their servers, so anyone inspecting packets can see who is sending messages through signal, just not what the messages contain. Thats a big red arrow pointing to only people sending encrypted messages. With this implementation, those people are mixed in with everyone else just reading news or even just having the app on their device.

There are many many more people using Signal to yell at their kids to do the dishes or some shit. Not whistleblowing.
Everyone is using encrypted messages…

I’m sorry you can’t grasp this concept. I guess study a different subject.
