First of all, excellent point by Snowden. 
Love him or hate him, he's right on target I'm afraid when it comes to the young folks of today.
Yes, last year I noticed Farcebook stopped letting me use chat on phone, they wanted me to down Messenger.
So I looked into it and was like oh HELL NO.
No way, no how.
That has got to be one of the most intrusive prying apps I have run across so far.
Wanting "permission" on just about EVERYTHING on your phone.
Yet how many use it according to the article? 900 million?
Just so they can "chat" to one another, they are giving up their privacy?
All one has to do is set the option to "desk top" instead of mobile and that usually works for me.
Of course, very seldom do i respond to chat via phone unless it is mystic.
Okay, color me dumb.
But what is PGP?
And even tho you may have nothing to hide, it is the principle of the matter when it comes to privacy.

Quote:People have been brainwashed into not caring about their privacy, I am trying to encourage others to use PGP as default and am not getting anywhere as people say "Why do that when I have nothing to hide?" *facepalm*. That is not the point!!
