2014. Messenger Kakao Talk Begins adds encryption
Chat app Kakao Talk has introduced a new end-to-end encryption feature on the chat app following controversy around user data in recent months. The new Secret Chat mode is now available on Android devices with iOS set to follow soon. The new feature is activated in two ways: via a drop down menu inside existing chats or a dedicated button that launches a new Secret Chat. The feature is initially live for one-on-one conversations only, but it will become an option for group chats within the first three months of next year.
