    I’m torn on it. I love that everything is geared towards privacy, but location sharing seems to go against the grain of the program’s principles.

    I’d make use of it if it was included, but I understand why it doesn’t and Google Maps does a similar thing.

      Location showing only goes against privacy If it’s not done right.

      It’s expensive to encrypt it and forward it through the servers or proxies, but revealing if done peer to peer. (And less reliable)

      But by the time I’m giving “live location” I don’t think my ip address is THAT private 😝

      I mean I can type out my social security number in Signal but sending text doesn’t go against Signal’s principles
