This is like complaining that you need to sign up for the internet using personal info to get onto the net.

Unless if ISP positions itself as rigid security service devoted to provide you security features and some famous people recommend using it in order to transfer sensitive documents.
They do not promise anonymous transfers. They promise encrypted transfers.
Public internet access, both in the form of hotspots and computers, are perfectly usable (if not terribly secure). But you cannot use Signal with a payphone.
Such access is FAR LESS secure for most real humans' threat models.
