    If any part of the data gets corrupted you lose the whole thing. Recovery tools can’t work with partially corrupted encrypted data.

      I don’t think that’s a big deal with Signal data. You can log back into your account, you’d just lose your messages. idk how most people use Signal but I have disappearing messages on for everything anyway, and if a message is that important to you then back it up.
