> Signal: Will leave the EU market rather than undermine our privacy guarantees

Considering the Lavabit case [1] this reek of grandstanding to anyone else? Not saying Europe is panacea but considering the unaccountability of American intelligence or law enforcement the European position does seem more favourable.

And to those who bring up policies such as Chat Control. The vote for that in Brussels has been postponed after enough outcry. [2] Hopefully it does not come back to life however them trying again under a different banner would not be a surprise either.
