Governments in Germany, France, Poland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Belgium have begun rolling out their own messaging apps to prevent employees from using widely used encrypted messaging apps to share sensitive information and to shift to local alternatives that can be monitored. NATO also has its own messaging app, and the European Commission plans to launch one by the end of the year.



Unless someone works in a highly secure job, this kind of app behavior is just a hindrance.
Makes me remember that where I work we use an ALM system(like jira) that’s sends only encrypted messages which forces us to use our PIN for every single mail we read and makes it impossible to use the search function. this for mails that have absolutely nothing sensitive. I think that people who set those secure options don’t actually work with them so they don’t see how frustrating it is.
True, why not just use Telegram? /s
