Not everyone will use it, but it is necessary to know these tools because when the time comes you can help others to communicate privately.

In my case, I don't use WhatsApp, if someone is unable to install Signal to talk to me is that he doesn't deserve to talk to me.

Very thorough, thanks!

I think Signal still looks good to me despite being US-based, due to their being open-source.
