For a while now, especially after the revelation of the roles of Snowden, the security and privacy have been put above many needs of the users and as proof of this, it is that WhatsApp the current King of the mobile messaging platform added encryption point to point service weeks ago , so it is not possible to intercept the messages sent by users, as is encrypted at the sending device and decoded on the device that receives them, a feature very demanded by users this platform, since most applications of the competition had this feature since long ago.
After the implementation of this measure of security in WhatsApp Facebook will also add this type of encryption to the second platform of the instant messaging market, Facebook Messenger. It is clear that the guys at Facebook move only by its own interests. Perhaps add this kind of extra security to your messaging applications may be motivated by the slower growth in the last months of its courier services because when it comes to copy the relay service video streaming that launched Twitter with Periscope have taken just a few months.
But as it is usual whenever Facebook adds a new function, the option of point-to-point encryption is available as an option for Facebook users since some new bots that have come to the messaging platform will not function correctly with this type of encryption. This excuse rather reminds me of that WhatsApp offered to users of iOS which took longer to be able to enjoy or suffer, WhatsApp Web, due to security problems offered by iOS, problems that he had found on the Android platform, hence you will soon reach this mobile operating system.
