> Is it your expectation that E2E is broken by these "dragnet surveillance" networks? Surely not?

While I disagree with these critiques of Signal, the surveillance networks can capture metadata - who talks to who and when - without breaking E2E. The metadata is as valuable as the data.

I think Signal has a feature to protect users, but I can't imagine how it works if the attacker can see all parties' Internet connections.
