"textContent": "From Removing SMS support from Signal Android:\n\n> The most important reason for us to remove SMS support from Android is that plaintext SMS messages are inherently insecure. They leak sensitive metadata and place your data in the hands of telecommunications companies. With privacy and security at the heart of what we do, letting a deeply insecure messaging protocol have a place in the Signal interface is inconsistent with our values and with what people expect when they open Signal.\n\nLike @CloakedNetizen said, there’s definitely a use case for this but it can also have downsides. I’m sure most of us can think of non-techy people in our lives who could totally make the mistake of using Gmail within Proton Mail while thinking it’s more private because they opened the Proton branded app.",
