For your security, you shouldn't use Converso to send any message that you wouldn't also publish as a tweet.

"Unfortunately, #Converso is not open source and their website is totally silent on cryptographic primitives and protocols, which is highly unusual for a self-proclaimed 'state-of-the-art' privacy application."

"Highly unusual" is the understatement of the century. If anyone believes encryption software can reliably protect their privacy without publishing full source code, I have a bridge they may wish to purchase.

Si feu servir l'appli "#Converso" ... doncs deixeu-ho córrer, no ofereix cap mena d'encriptació segura, i les errades de disseny en quant a seguretat són monumentals. Tot propaganda.

Aquí ens ho analitzen pas a pas, de la mà d'algú que domina el disseny d'applis de mòbil, javascript, i bases de dades: https://crnkovic.dev/testing-converso/

Snakeoil salesmen indeed. "Privacy app" my butt! I've never heard of Converso chat before, but wow... Being that incompetent and boasting about "secure" and "private". This should be criminal...

“No metadata? That's a bold and intriguing promise. Even Signal, the gold standard of encrypted messaging, with its Double Ratchet and X3DH components, still manages to leak a ton of metadata.”
