Most private messenger is that beats my privacy scoring table. Many have tried, only few have succeed. Support my work: https://www.patreon.com/thehatedone
I threat modeled every messaging app I could think of and I created an exact ranking system to score and rate their privacy protections.
To answer a question which messenger is the most private we need to have a consistent methodology. For that, I’ll use an actual privacy threat model called LINDDUN – which is a comprehensive list of all privacy threats – Linkability, Identifiability, Non-Repudiation, Detectability, Data Disclosure, Unawareness and Non-compliance. This is an excellent benchmark to measure messaging apps against so I’ll do it for all of them threat by threat.
To simplify this, each threat will be subdivided into three vectors – account, usage and service. Account is about login credentials and authentication. Usage is about all the metadata and usage data collected or exposed by the app. And service is about how much data the service provider keeps and how it uses to track you or target you with ads. For each threat, a messenger can get a maximum of plus three points if it mitigates each vector, and negative three points if it introduces ways of exposing each vector.
By the end, this should give us a ranking table and see which messenger is the most or least private based on its privacy score. For more in-depth details and explanation, I have an episode for each messaging app scored on this list on The Hated One Podcast - https://www.patreon.com/thehatedone.
