The feature, which has endured since the early days of the social-media platform, is still clinging to life and in fact being pushed again by Meta as a way to maintain connections with friends. Originally intended as a way to reach out to other users without actually sending a message or any meaningful content, it has been the focus of soft relaunches in 2017 and 2024.

X is now offering me end-to-end encrypted chat — you probably shouldn’t trust it yet

techcrunch.com Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai 2025-10-15 01:04:03

X, formerly Twitter, has started rolling out its new encrypted messaging feature called “Chat” or “XChat.” The company claims the new communication feature is end-to-end encrypted, meaning messages exchanged on it can only be read by the sender and their receiver, and — in theory — no one else, including X, can access them. Cryptography experts, however, are warning that X’s current implementation of encryption in XChat should not be trusted. They’re saying it’s far worse than Signal, a techno
