What he did with messaging... So he will centralize all of it with known broken SGX metadata protections, weak supply chain integrity, and a mandate everyone supply their phone numbers and agree to Apple or Google terms of service to use it?
Not sure why you're gettimg downvoted. This is exactly what he did to instant messaging; extremely damaging to everyone and without solid arguments for such design.
what did he do for messaging? Signal is hardly more private than goddamn Whatsapp. in fact, given that Whatsapp had not been heavily shilled as the "totally private messenger for journalists and whistleblowers :^)" by the establishment media, I distrust it less.
Yeah, it seems kind of funny how Signal is marketed as a somewhat paranoid solution, but most people run it on an iPhone out of the app store with no way to verify the source. All it takes is one villain to infiltrate one of a few offices and Signal falls apart.
Same goes for Whatsapp, but the marketing is different there.

The website is: https://confer.to/
"Confer - Truly private AI. Your space to think."
"Your Data Remains Yours, Never trained on. Never sold. Never shared. Nobody can access it but you."
"Continue With Google"
Make of that what you will.
Looks like using Google for login. You can also "Continue with Email." Logging in with Google is pretty standard.
It is not privacy oriented if you are sharing login, profile information with Google and Confer.
It wouldn't be long until Google and Gemini can read this information and Google knows you are using Confer.
Wouldn't trust it regardless if Email is available.
The fact that confer allows Google login shows that Confer doesn't care about users privacy.
Add a defunct cryptotoken?

He implemented E2EE in Whatsapp as well.
