Finally got around to trying @signalapp and I wish I'd tried it sooner. Open Whisper has done an amazing public service here. Even putting encryption aside, it's just a great messaging client in general. Message delivery confirmation alone is worth the install.

Ivan, I believe the key advantages Signal has over WhatsApp, Viber, & Telegram are open source code, minimal metadata collection, & a record of an independent security audit. WhatsApp & Viber are closed source apps, & Telegram’s chats are not end-to-end encrypted by default.

Replying to @ResearchLaw @signalapp
Everything he just said, plus private contact discovery! AFAIK all of the other services have a record of _who_ you may be in contact with, whereas I don't believe Signal ever does.
