Now that we can create and delete usernames at will, do people have any concerns about giving people they meet their Signal ID? I have no fears of it. In fact, my Signal is oozic.35 if anyone wanta to message me.

    That woild make for good info sec. I would be curious to test how it does for numbers that are not a cell number, and anonymously paid numbers. I can get my wn number without a name for that phone number and pay for the phone service with crypto and cash.

      That depends on how you use the number. If you sign up for services that sell that data, then starting with a private number is irrelevant. If you keep that number on lock, then it wouldn’t be possible for Joe Shmoe like me to track it.
