- Xylakant 8y agoAFAIK, this is mostly intended as a secure messenger _for_ the government. Which makes sense - what are they supposed to use? WhatsApp? Twitter DM? Skype for Governments? But even if you’re not in the target demographic, you might benefit: The government will run a large installation and hopefully some code will find its way back to the OS version.
- kqr 8y ago> Skype for Governments? I want to type this into a search bar to see if it's a thing... but simultaneuosly I'm terrified of the prospect of discovering that it is.
- Xylakant 8y agoI don’t think it exists as a product, but I’d totally not be surprised if Skype for Business is used in government branches.
