What is better for privacy? Signal or Telegram? I know XMPP is better then both of them.

          Get a burner phone number and set up a pin, problem solved. If you think telegram can be anonymous you are being rather naive. Go to your session lists and read information on all of your connected devices, whether connected through proxy or not. That’s not a one-out example. Did you share contacts list? Did you ever enable location? What about your device’s uptime? It is very much pseudonymous.

      Signal hashes your phone number so you don’t need to worry about it.
