> I was phrasing that unclear, I meant that you have to trust Intel if you use Mobilecoin.

Ah, fair. I think you could also argue that you have to trust Intel if you use Signal anyway.

> Why wouldn't you be able to exercise that choice?

I'm not saying you can't (unlike some), but I think it's worth underlining the point that "trusting nobody" is rarely, if ever an option. So in a world where you end up having to trust someone, being able to continuously exercise that is important.

Agreed :)

Also agree here. I would prefer if you could minimize the number of actors you have to trust though.
