    WhatsApp uses the same encryption as Signal and chat screening won’t be exclusive to WhatsApp anyway, so whatever WhatsApp will need to implement to comply, Signal will have to follow.

        Good luck setting up your own server and convincing everybody else to use that.

        Signal is not federated. It relies on a central server, meaning for all intends and purposes Signal controls the entire chain.

          End to end encrypted, I think chat control is all about client-side scanning so the app being open source is a big deal and would prevent client-side scanning because even if they build in client-side scanning, it’s open source and people can remove it.
