@shmibs They don’t because users control what they share with those irc or xmpp servers. It’s all voluntary.

@shmibs @hj @shpuld >privacy: is not improved in any situation dealing with systems you do not own or have control over

@shmibs @hj @shpuld I said security improved because security is an issue that is never fully solved. New types of attacks get invented every day.

@shmibs @hj @shpuld Security improves by third parties being able to audit, censorship is gone because people can make alternatives, privacy is improved by being able to remove privacy invasive features.

But yeah of course you will never have control over what other people are able to save on the network, but you’ll have full control over what is being sent over the network in the first place.
