hi
thank for your answer. what is the role of the password? is it used to
access the TextSecure app? is it a shared password with the recipient?

Hello Wasabee,
I've used TextSecure but I found that it's like sending encrypted SMS,
therefore you have the consequent cost associated to it. I don't know
if Heml.is will be a kind of secure whatsapp or if it will have the
same approach of TextSecure.
Correct me if I'm wrong with the SMS stuff. It was what I thought once
I received my bill.

https://whispersystems.org/ already has an open-source secure
messaging, voice and more.
Has anyone reviewed their code?
Does anyone use it?
Why not build on top of it?

noone said it would be closed source. That's peoples guess. Like,
your guess, I guess.
According to their twitter account, the answer is "maybe":

Peter Sunde (one of the people behind it) said "eventually", but
in my experience promises like that tend to be broken:

and the feature 'unlocking' aspect of the project - to be indication of
a
proprietary code base.
Frankly I can't see how they could get the "feature unlock" funding
stuff to work well if it's proper open source. As I'd expect people
to fork it to remove such antifeatures. It's a pity, as several new
funding models have been successful recently which are compatible with
free software, but this doesn't look to be one of them.
