- 29083011397778 6y agoI'd actually assume the opposite of your statement (which I read as "One mustn't be a criminal to use Jabber"): I wouldn't trust any technology completely unused by criminal organisations. Criminal orgs require their communications be secure, ideally without the ability for whomever they're chatting with to compromise the chat without meaning to (see iMessage saving both the key and the messages to iCloud, Whatsapp backing up messages to Google Drive, etc.) It's very true to say not every criminal organisation uses proper opsec, but my point is not every criminal is smart. I'm simply pointing out that if a communication platform isn't used by any criminals, it's likely not worth using for me.
