- kornhole 4y agoI thought so too, but someone needs to set that in the message which perhaps they forget. The problem with Snapchat is that it is not E2EE (End to end encrypted). Snapchat seems to sit in a strange place of being a little more private than Facebook and other big tech messengers but not as private as E2EE messengers such as Matrix, XMPP, Briar, Signal.. I suppose it is because they revenue is ad based and they need some data for ad targeting. Their future seems very tenuous to me.
