Signal is working on a way to sign up without a phone number. The feature has not yet been officially confirmed, and it is not yet known whether it will be available to all users or in what form.
It’s pretty easy to detect spam. I guess user reports and noticing when someone suddenly messages many new users and those users do not respond.
Anyway, it’s not an issue on Wire or SimpleX or the dozens of other platforms that don’t require phone numbers. It’s obviously a solved problem. Signal is just making up fake excuses.

Tell that to… any social media. Lol. If was easy to detect bot you think they not big problem anymore.
Social media is different from a platform that’s literally just DMs.
