Reminder that this is the same app that a few weeks ago was found to be advertised as secure when it was still experimental and without being audited, and for which multiple serious vulnerabilities were found before they added the disclaimer saying it was experimental:

It was very clearly advertised as experimental and insecure:

I can see a use case for sending files from phone to phone, but wouldn't you just talk to someone if you're that close?

Also, I wonder what the theoretical range is? How many relay points will a message go through?
