Signal is disclosing peer-to-peer communication not sent through its own VPN to Google, or meta data thereof (i.e. call & duration, aliases & numbers)

**Premise** Signal is disclosing peer-to-peer communication not sent through its own VPN to Google, or meta data thereof (i.e. call & duration, aliases & numbers) covertly, and without explicit disclosure of this fact in its ToS/EULA etc.. (Please see the attached screenshot below)[\[1\]]2 I have learned about this during research with a jailbroken iPhone running iOS 14.3, and AppFirewall[\[3\]][3] [\[4\]][4] , a jailbreak tweak for iOS. **Question** Is there any other way to block this without having to jailbreak an iPhone, and having a non-OEM system-wide, app-to-app firewall system set up? **Depction** ----------- **Footnotes** 2: Transcript of image: [signal indicator at 1 out of 4 bars; "LTE", ¶, Contact name or number redacted in red ¶] "Signal Connecting...
