    You are wrong ;-) The push stuff is just used to signal the receiver that there is a new message. No meaningful data is sent that way. Not even an encrypted message.

      Call me paranoid, but Google owns Android. They can easily read the content of a notification as it’s displayed. They even have a Notification History app where you can see all applications from all apps.

        You’re missing the point, there’s no message content sent in the notification, there’s nothing to read.

          I’m not talking about the FCM message, I’m talking about Android running on your phone, where the message content is displayed to you.

      At some point, Android is reading the message to generate the quick replies that were showing in the notification. They’re content-aware and this is not a function of Signal; if someone sent me a question, there were “yes” and “no” quick replies. If someone sent that they were going to be late, there were quick replies like “That’s OK”, etc.
