MODERATORS
Signal throws users who need anonymity (refugees, victims of domestic abuse, etc) under the bus by refusing to let users create accounts without phone numbers.
There's no technical restriction. Signal just doesn't care about helping these people.
Spam. If you implemented other ways of stopping it, it would be even worse for privacy.
That's there excuse. They also say F-droid is insecure which is not true these days
Bullshit.other services have anonymous accounts yet no issues with spam
That's due to privacy hostile captchas and others absolutely horrendous techniques.
Nope, none of that is needed for Wire
