What the title says. I’m trying to discern if using a number acquired and served through JMP for phone and text, versus a mobile carrier, provides a better data security and privacy experience.
On the one hand I wouldn’t be subject to the almost yearly data breaches that a number of the carriers experience, nor their potential snooping. However on the other, I’m not sure if using JMP and Cheogram actually provides any increase in privacy or security on that front?
XMPP works through gateways, so any SMP or PBX Voice call is routed through the standard network, so is not secure. VOIP and the XMPP chat features, however, can be secure and private. The encryption exists and you can host your own servers, which covers both of the privacy concerns.
