Great, then it sounds like we agree: your original equivalence of Signal and WhatsApp was misguided, since one offers a verifiable chain of trust that starts with source availability and the other doesn't, to say nothing of the lengthy history of untrustworthiness and extensive, deliberate privacy violations of the company that owns and maintains WhatsApp, right?
