Why Threema?
We prefer to communicate with Threema for the following reasons:
We would like to rely more on European products and therefore try to avoid American chat apps.
WhatsApp records communication behavior and uses it to create a profile that is used for advertising purposes.
We do not want to support such a business model.
We do not want to disclose personal data and therefore prefer to use a messaging service that does not require a telephone number or email address.
We do not want to contribute to consolidating the monopoly position of tech companies.
We want to prevent our data from being misused for AI training and therefore prefer to use a chat app that does not use AI.
For transparency reasons, we try to use open source software whenever possible.
