Enrique Dans's article discusses the significance of choosing encrypted messaging apps like Signal, especially in light of government surveillance. 

The author highlights the irony of Trump administration officials using Signal for sensitive communications despite criticizing Hillary Clinton's email practices. 

Dans emphasizes that Signal's strength lies not only in its encryption but also in its commitment to not storing metadata, unlike other popular apps. He notes the European Commission's adoption of Signal due to its strong privacy features. 

Ultimately, Dans frames the selection of privacy-focused communication tools as a politically charged act in an era of widespread monitoring.
