    Anonymous backs new encrypted social network to rival Facebook

    A new social network has been launched, vowing more transparency, security, and privacy than Facebook and other social media giants. Backed by the hacktivist group Anonymous, it will encrypt all messages, shielding data from governments and advertisers. At first glance, Minds.com appears similar to any other social network. It provides a person's followers with the latest updates, allowing their friends to comment and promote posts.

    The site, which was launched with desktop and mobile apps on Monday, was gaining traction even before the official unveiling.

    Before the formal launch, the site had gained 60 million visits, Ottman said. Many of those users were people “interested in alternative media,” with interests like online freedom and citizen journalism.

      If only our data are encrypted + trasmissions are secured + data expiry + non centrally located servers would definitely enhance users security and privacy but make he'll of a life for data stealers and NSA.
