That's dumb, people want their security! I say that it's a good thing that these services are encrypted.
Besides just gives more of a reason to jailbreak your ios or root your android.No doubt someone will release some type of vpn along side the apps it in order to hide your using them from ya service provider what your doing from ya Oh and i d like to add that banning them is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard of :wallbash: haha oh and thanks for the share i dont normally follow news etc so would ve been a while before i found out lol
Fecal Leaking, Britain is turning into America, trying to limit the amount of encrypted messages sent and received. Personally speaking, this will never work, and I am not sure why it's such a problem, ******** created the algorithm for there encrypted messages, so they could easily create a reverse encryption allowing them to view messages just as freely as a normal text message.
