    Signal Messenger and Phone Number

    I appreciate Meredith Whittaker’s views on surveillance, privacy, security and encryption.

    In the same context of privacy, I keep wondering about the rationale behind Signal Messenger to depend only on phone number or mobile number as its digital identity. Why does Signal Messenger not provide multiple alphanumeric user identities internally mapped to the phone number and enable users to only share the user id without disclosing the phone number? It would be better if Signal Messenger can discard usage of phone number.
