Oh. Well yea, the keys not relating to my conversations does flip everything on its head again. So back on its feet?
Are there other keys for your conversations in signal?
Do you use signal?
Okay, thanks for taking the time to write all of this down and explain it to me, I feel like I understand signal a lot better now.
And I feel better knowing that the keys to the conversation are regularly replaced in the app and that there are plenty of steps to take to make it more secure anyway.
Man, that was a really interesting reply hah, I've read through it like three times.. I'll be checking out the links you sent also.
Here's a point in favour:

The master key is stored. At the very least somebody with the master key could be able to engage your contacts, without getting a new key warning.
