I would never recommend ICQ Video Calls & Chat Rooms to my worst enemy. This is nothing more than the GRU capitalizing on Nostalgia, and using it to Phish for your information WILLINGLY. TO ALL this application IS NOTHING like the original the app ( I Seek You).where the entire chat was Anonymous. Name of chat and link for owner of chat was provided. *Update* It has been a week since the chat and child pornography was reported through ICQ Video Calls & Chat Rooms and after contacting the app via email. But the fact that the reported content goes unnoticed really bothers me. Wow! If that’s the case why is that chat still running after reporting child pornography content in it! But was told the app allows this kind of group chats as long as there is no child pornography. Which I also reported.Īfter managing to find someone that could guide me, I was told to contact an the app moderator who can delete groups and accounts. the app has not done anything to eliminate the group chat or even the accounts posting the content. I reported the chat due to child pornography. As I was reporting the images, a thumbnail for a video showed there was a child involved. It’s a private group for the sole purpose of sharing and posting pornography. One man, whom I had to block, added me to a private group chat with over 3k people in it.
IS ICQ MESSENGER ENCRYPTED PRO
If you want to keep all of your communications secure from all outsiders, definitely check out IM+ in the App Store ( free version, pro version).I read an article that listed the app as a great app to reminisce of the chat rooms we used to have back in the early 2000’s.ĭownloaded ICQ Video Calls & Chat Rooms and soon found out some men use it to prey upon women, to either scam them or for sexual purposes. As detailed on the Facebook post, Pidgin (for Windows) and Adium (for Mac) support OTR. In short, it’s an encryption system that works with any service by creating encryption/decryption keys that only last for a short amount of time. But what happens then, when it connects to AOL, Facebook, ICQ or any other IM server? There is no guarantee that messages are encrypted there and on the way to your contact.īut if you use OTR, no matter how many servers are used to pass message from you to your contact – none of them is able to decrypt the message, it may be decrypted only on your contact’s smartphone or computer. For example, almost every messenger (including IM+) uses SSL encryption to connect to its own server. This distinguishes OTR from other encryption methods. On their Facebook page, the company details OTR.įirst of all, OTR is end-to-end encryption, which means that message is encrypted on sender’s side and decrypted on receiver’s side. Rather than using a single, proprietary messaging services, IM+ uses the OTR standard that can be used with many messaging services and across many devices. The popular IM+ app ( free version, pro version) is offering their $4.99 “off-the-record” feature for just 99 cents until the end of tomorrow.
iMessage uses end-to-end encryption, but the security of Skype, AIM and MSN are questionable. With all of the privacy invasion news (read: PRISM) going around nowadays, lots of encryption and security solutions have been seeing record sales.
