Telegram Says It Will Provide User Data to Authorities

Question, knowing all this, the way Signal’s servers are configured, non-reproducible etc and Signal refusing to implement Molly’s features, can we ask ourselves whether Signal is a honeypot?
I see quite a few people on the internet voicing doubts and criticisms about Signal, its funding (US government), MobileCoin, non-reproducible servers and refusal to secure the application like Molly, but in the end it’s the critics who are right, isn’t it?
