check your contacts app before stating such things. I'm not stating that signal sends your data to facebook and such, but that signal is registering info into the OS for convenience, that will also he visible to other apps with the privilege granted, including those of facebook
Check my contacts app for what, exactly?
sorry, I think I was wrong. signal/molly only attaches that information to a contact when it already has the phone number that they use for signal.
so unless you keep your phone number visible on signal, or you share your phone number in another way, this shouldn't be a problem.
