   Thinking that the only things available to the US security state from Signal are the things Signal claim to save is, I feel, naive in the extreme.

   On the upside, them leaking, acknowledging, or unambiguously using that in a way that is traceable is going to be a massive upset, and you're probably not that important.

   But Apple, Google, Signal, are all US organisations with servers in the US operating under US wiretapping laws.

     So, by all means, use Signal, organise and shittalk, but for anything truly sensitive, something that could realistically threaten US national security or be perceived to do so, you might want to consider other ways of organising.
