    The Matrix messaging service is in no way related to the legitimate Matrix messaging protocol. We don’t want US citizens looking for an encrypted messaging service to shy away from apps built on the Matrix protocol just because it has the same name.

    Why do criminals keep using custom chat solutions anyways?

      Good, ongoing opsec is a whole expertise, and criminals come in just as many flavors of incompetent as any other occupation.
