Meredith Whittaker, president of the Signal Foundation, joins Mishal Husain on The Mishal Husain Show (Bloomberg) to discuss business models that rely on data collection, the rise of artificial intelligence assistants, and how even well-meaning efforts to protect children online risk undermining private communication.

She also explains how Signal works, why Signal would rather leave a market than weaken its end-to-end encryption, and how it sustains itself as a nonprofit.

Recorded in June 2026.
