Pirate Bay Co-Founder Wants Your Help In Launching The First Messaging App With Military-Grade Encryption
Privacy and Security are two words to describe 2013 and both are only going to become bigger and bigger in the future. With the whole PRISM uncovering and various other breaches of privacy and security people are starting to demand their basic rights be protected.
Peter Sunde, co-fundador de The Pirate Bay, está tratando de cambiar esto, sin embargo, al menos en el lado de la comunicación de las cosas. Actualmente está tratando de obtener fondos a través de PayPal y Bitcoin para financiar un proyecto llamado Heml.is
Heml.is will be the first messaging app on iOS and Android that will be user friendly and so secure that not even the development group behind the app will be able to read the conversations. This is thanks to using technologies such as XMPP with PGP (military grade encryption).
The idea of the app sounds solid and should appeal to a lot of people and as of right now it looks like the project will be funded in no time. You can learn more about Heml.is and fund the project yourself by visiting the official website byclicking here.
The question remains though will Google and Apple allow such an app into the App Store?
