The field is large enough that several competitors could have healthy userbases at the same time. I like diversity of offerings. But having said that, developers should always be ready to defend their creation. Whisper Systems has a very good (and deserved) reputation, and any other telephony product/service needs to have a solid feature set and use-case in order to be successful in this space. My feedback is that Tinfoil SMS will not gain much traction as its name marginalizes its users. Wanting more security is not sketchy. Wanting privacy is not a "tinfoil hat" situation. Cheekiness can be good, but this is a space where you start out at a disadvantage and having a name that inspires confidence is important. best, Griffin -- "Cypherpunks write code not flame wars." --Jurre van Bergen #Foucault / PGP: 0xAE792C97 / OTR: [email protected] My posts are my own, not my employer's. -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable on Google.
