Thanks, makes sense, though guess I would expect a non-profit to communicate this; don’t believe Signal even links to the 990 I linked to on their own website; possible they don’t want the public to (easily) know salaries, assets, etc - but unclear.

True, but remember that Signal (the app developer) is an LLC. The 990s may eventually be posted on the Signal Foundation website if they ever finish it: https://signalfoundation.org/

Thanks, good point, was aware of that, but others might not be; never seen a good explanation for their legal structure, both as it relates to the present & future.

I have checked both URLs for 990s, only way I found it was via a link in the footer of Signal’s Wikipedia page.

ProPublica's database is my go-to for 990s. Only the 2018 form so far: https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/824...
