So you download the app and it wants full permissions to everything on your phone
and then they want you to provide a phone number and do phone verification (that did not work)

How is this supposed to be protecting my privacy or security and I am also picking up from the
Russia debate that keys are released to some governments but not others and why are all messages by default
not using end to end encryption.

I am well un impressed and was it to be built well and to be decentralized then no one would give a flying fart
about Russia trying to block the service or anyone else so it look like if you want a job done right then best do it
yourself.

I was thinking about linking the network I am working on to "Telegram" but it seems that it cannot meet the basic
requirements or being anonymous if it's tied to a phone number so what other networks (if any) should I take a peek at.
