I'm getting more and more paranoid.

Is there an encrypted messenger like Whatsapp?

When using public wifi or hotel wifi, I want more protection.

Can I force my WP phone browser to run over https? And be warned if not?

Thanks,

Mr. V

Use Telegram app and for running over https, use a VPN like hidemyass.com . It gives you a 2 months free subscription.

Being Paranoid is good. Believing in encryption is bad.

All the encryption in the world wont help if you have a rubbish password, or your security questions to reset passwords are easy to guess.

I take the view that everything i do online is being read by someone somewhere (generally Google), and tailor my content accordingly, rather than assuming because i've used encryption, that nobody will ever find out what ive done.
