Following several reports surrounding its lack of security, Nothing Chats is gone from the Play Store
  • Nothing Chats, a rival to apps like Beeper and AirMessage, advertised itself as a secure platform for sending messages to iMessage users.
  • However, less than 24 hours after its launch, investigations into the app revealed that Nothing Chats logged every message in plain text and stored unencrypted data, including text messages, images, videos, and more, making it a significant privacy and security risk.
  • The company removed the app from the Play Store following these complaints, citing “several bugs” that need fixing.

    I used PayPal in the early 2000’s and never had to provide banking credentials to move money in or out.

      Some banks in my country had a direct integration with paypal for making instant transfers, some have used sketchy 3rd party payment gateways. You could’ve just linked a credit card, but I had zero trust in online card payments at the time. That’s why the idea of paypal wallet with limited balance was appealing to me in the first place.
