I feel it suffers from the same weak point of traditional stenagraphy when applied to the real world of trying to hide communications.
Like all human endeavors, the weak point is the out of band communications among any group of humans actually trying to use this.
For instance:
- How does the group share the initial information about the app/plugin, etc. when setting up the communication channel when additional people join the messaging group?
- What happens if one of the member becomes compromised/becomes a mole for the CIA/FBI, etc. or is asked to unlock their phone when interrogated by border patrol.
- What happens if a member misses the message to upgrade to the new app/plugin, because the old one got compromised...
Traditional stenagraphy itself is likely easy to hide in plain sight today in the sea of trillions of hours of useless minutes of TikTok's, trillions of Instagram photos, Tinder profile pictures, Twitter text, etc.
