I saw some threads here about Telegram and piracy stuff being banned. So, as an experimental alternative, I created a public Signal group for piracy.

Maybe it'll be useful?

Before joining

Signal supports usernames and hiding telephone numbers. Here's a blog entry on how to do so. You might want to:

  • set a username
  • change your profile name (these are two separate things!)
  • hide your phone number

Yeah, for me personally I'm sticking to simplex. I can get an anonymous sim card, but none of the people I'd be talking to would do that. I don't want this relationship/network map out there at all if I can avoid it.

What makes you think Signal is maintaining relationship maps, and secondly, even if it is, is there any evidence they're included in LEO subpoenas?

They pinky promise they don't maintain these relationships. Maybe even they really don't. But they have the ability to, if they were to change their mind, and that's the problem.

Use secure protocols which don't give anyone that ability.
