Good. I wish regular people moved to Signal so I could uninstall that god forsaken app.

Great. Now I want to see Brazil doing it, instead of short-sighted laws about verifying your age to see porn. Specially given how egregious Meta is under its territory; people treat you like a weirdo for not having Facebook, assumers think you should have Instagram, and everybody and their dog has that bloody WhatsApp, to the point not using it is social suicide. If at least civil servants were required to use something else than WhatsApp there would be some room to push for alternatives.
I feel exactly the same! We are forced to use WhatsApp in a daily basis here
Great!
Having (shock!) read the article, the push is to move civil servants off of WhatsApp and Signal and any other consumer app you may be thinking about and onto a closed-off chat system for each government.
Probably a better anology would be a custom Slack-like service that these governments fully control.
