Default notification mode exposes message history and content to platform notification storage #6240

Description

@skyscooby

Signal should consider changing the default setting for the content that is sent over to the notifications API on the platform. Users should have to opt-in to having the username and message included in the notification. By default it should simply be 'New Signal Message'...

Signal prides itself in being a Secure messenger and exposing the majority of short messages and usernames to the platform where they seem to be duplicated elsewhere presents a VERY unnecessary exposure vector for private data.
