> I'm surprised at the lack of ventures working to distance themselves from the content of the conversations. Me too. I struggle to understand why most communication platforms don't try to do end-to-end encryption. From what I've seen, it can one, be a lot more complicated technically and two, hard to make a user experience that people enjoy. However, I don't know if people starting companies think enough about the ramifications of knowing (and storing) what people are saying to each other, legally and emotionally. I've been wanting to do more work online, especially over the pandemic, helping people express emotions and I've often balked at platforms because they don't have e2ee or they say they do and then are found out to not have it (ie Zoom). Most people may not desire this, but as someone who wants to run classes and have conversations about deep emotions, I strongly want almost all of the platforms to be e2ee. I would love gather.town, Discourse, Discord, Guilded, Clubhouse, and many other communication platforms to have e2ee as default. I want this for personal conversations but I strongly want/need this for professional conversations, and because it hasn't really been there on many of these platforms, I've just not had those conversations.
