Elon Musk's XChat Claims to Offer 'Private' Messaging (but Is Reserving the Right to Collect Your Data) ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

As Mashable's Jack Dawes highlights, XChat's app privacy policies are a bit out of alignment with its promises. If you scroll to the "App Privacy" section of XChat's App Store page, you'll see that the app has declared it may collect the following data points, and link them to your identity:

Contacts

Usage Data

User Content

Diagnostics

XChat does claim it comes with some key features that other mainstream chat apps do. That includes editing or deleting messages for everyone in the chat, blocking screenshots, sending disappearing messages, cross-platform calling, and large group chats. (The App Store listing shows a group chat with 481 members.)

As the app is meant for X users to communicate with one another, you do need an X account to use XChat. That means the app likely won't pop off the same way other messaging apps have, but it may attract existing X users who have a number of contacts they already chat with in DMs. We'll see whether that's the case when the app launches later this week, but I imagine any privacy-minded users may prefer to seek alternative arrangements.
