1. Disable Google Safe Browsing in WebViews …

   By default, Google Safe Browsing is enabled in WebView objects; see https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/layout/webapps/managing-webview#safe-browsing. Safe Browsing requires sending any URLs loaded in WebViews to Google to check for malicious contents. As the WebView URLs loaded are generally either Signal websites or reputable payment providers for donations, the potential security benefits of Google scanning for phishing websites outweigh the privacy issues of sending this information to Google.
