The rest of the article (not translated) is an interview with Cathcart.

It's an extreme monopoly here in Germany, too. But the EU will force them to be interoperable with other messengers soon, which will hopefully break that monopoly.
I'm interested to see how that's implemented. I remember interacting with Facebook via email a long time ago.
I still wonder what's so different with my circle that so many of them use signal. I mean sure, none use only signal and all also have WA, but almost everyone I know, which is people from Flensburg (border to Denmark) to RLP (center-south), aged late 20 to 70+, use signal. Less than 10% don't.
