Too many people don't know that platforms can read their private messages.
That's why we did the hard, slow thing: built our company around end-to-end encryption. So no one can read what you write except you and who you send it to. 🔒🤫

End-to-end encrypted means we can't read anything that happens in our app. Your cards, messages, friends--they're yours, not ours. And that's a promise we can't help but keep. 🤐
