None (1) ·
Free, no ads, no paid tiers. Run by the Signal Foundation, a US 501(c)(3) nonprofit
funded by grants and donations; by charter it cannot be acquired. (1) ·
Software is free and open source (GPLv2); your only cost is a VPS -- roughly
USD 4-6 / month on a provider like [[Digital Ocean]], or a spare box you already run. (1)

rejected alternatives:
Commercial Israeli-owned VPNs (Kape's ExpressVPN / CyberGhost / PIA /
ZenMate, Hola, Hotspot Shield) reintroduce exactly the operator you're trying to remove -- see
[[:Category:VPN]]. (1) ·
Custodial crypto processors like Coinbase Commerce and BitPay: they
take crypto but hold funds and impose KYC, reintroducing exactly the operator-freeze risk
that self-custody removes. If the goal is deplatform resistance, a custodial crypto gateway
gives up the main advantage. (1) ·
WhatsApp (uses the Signal protocol but is Meta-owned and harvests
metadata) and Telegram (chats are not end-to-end encrypted by default, weaker crypto). (1)
