Ok, fair enough. I just went through their feature list on the site, my two cents are it should be on by default. I'm not saying anything bad about it though, as I haven't used it.
My point still stands though, ultimately the weakest links in any such app will probably be the username/password that you entrust for storage to some entity upon signup, the actual protocol design and implementation of the crypto on the messaging backbone, and depending on that the physical security of the machines involved anywhere along the line. I just don't see why I should *de facto* trust Wengo more than I trust Skype just because they open-sourced their app. That doesn't mean it's either well designed or implemented or that they won't divulge my login details under duress. It's just silly gnuism saying open source is the answer to everything. mike
