Signal is a nonprofit. But what does this mean in practice? Today we do something most tech coâs avoid: talk money. What does it cost for Signal to play in a lane dominated by billion $ corporations, while rejecting the surveillance business model?

Signal is the worldâs most widely used truly private messaging app, and our cryptographic technologies provide extra layers of privacy beyond the Signal app itself.
