To be fair, unlike Signal and Matrix, Tox does not rely on external server, it is full P2P. In that regard, setting up a Tox network is infinitely simpler. Also, the only thing you leak is your IP address that end up in tox DHT, which is a necessity for peers to be able to reach you. It could easily be hidden behind Tor or a VPN.
