Facebook tries competing with TOR-Chat

[awesome31312]

Welcome to Facebook's Anonymous Dark Room. Where no one knows it is you in the chat room, except for Facebook, their advertisers, the data mining corporation that purchased user information, the NSA, FBI, CIA, local law enforcement...but no one else. Mark promised.

The question is:

Did he pinky promise?

I think the main reason why people will not trust this is because it will not be open source and the USG will likely try to quietly force them to provide a back door to these chat sessions. The NSA apparently had more or less hacked into FB's data farms to mass collect data (above the programs when the NSA uses "warrants" to get data from FB "voluntarily").

IMO the only real way to chat/message securely is to use PGP and to manually encrypt/decrypt with a program that can do so on every message
