While very disingenuous, it's not technically incorrect.
Signal is secure by design, and is extremely good at that with a very well designed and vetted cryptographic protocol.
But privacy isn't one of their primary goals, nor should it if it comes at the cost of security; for example, for the longest time you needed to share your phone number with everyone you wanted to talk to, and everyone in every group chat you are a part of could see it.
Really?! Based on their website, I'd say privacy is their primary goal, and personally I'd say they've done a great job at it
