Exactly.

For example, I see like a good strategy to provide 'client side'
encryption and create strong layers of privacy over 'server side' API's.
Just to complement it. But this is openning another debate that is
worldwide on the table, about the possibility of criminalize just for
have -pentesting- software tools on a computer. For example, in Spain
they are trying to create a kind of "pentester certificate" and some
lists of white hackers. Probably to have more easy who is ready to be
called on a "national security" problem and to identify grey-hats and
other tribus more easily.

About client side encryption, I think is not easy to deploy and require
to code on 'corporate way' (with they rules). This is giving to them a
value more than to other platforms.

Probably is more clean to win the battle of services, creating
alternatives to FB, Twitter, etc.. with a strong transparent encryption
but looks more hard to reach.
