Not everything needs to be super secure. I can sit and talk with a group of friends at a cafe, and anyone can listen to us, and see that we're talking to each other. If we want to talk about something secret we can go somewhere private that's less convinient but more secure.
Same thing with messaging online. Everyday nonsense can use whatever app you want, and if there's something you really don't want anyone else knowing you can use a different solution. I think the trade-off is worth it for most people.

It means that people may download it wanting security and thinking they are covered, when in reality they aren’t because they are using a group chat.
