You can create and run your own Signal server if you don't trust Signal.
Interesting. Are the server and client open source? Is a self-hosted server interoperable with the main ones?
Signal is completely open source and auditable by anyone: https://github.com/signalapp
if you were to create your own clone, it would not interoperate with the real one.
