Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday posted a 3,000 word note outlining a more"privacy-focused" future for the tech company, saying that communications platforms that protect privacy will"become even more important than today's open platforms."
"I believe the future of communication will increasingly shift to private, encrypted services where people can be confident what they say to each other stays secure and their messages and content won't stick around forever," Zuckerberg said on his Facebook post."This is the future I hope we will help bring about."
"Today if you want to message people on Facebook you have to use Messenger, on Instagram you have to use Direct, and on WhatsApp you have to use WhatsApp," he wrote."We want to give people a choice so they can reach their friends across these networks from whichever app they prefer."
