|Scenario Task Description=Messaging is the most popular method for communicating on smartphones today. [https://www.whatsapp.com/ WhatsApp], [https://www.snapchat.com/ SnapChat], [https://slack.com/ Slack], just to name a few, and of course the behemoths that are [https://www.facebook.com/mobile/messenger Facebook messenger] and [http://www.google.com/+/learnmore/hangouts/ Google Hangouts] all offer messaging services. It's interesting to note that they are all working in silos - your friends and contacts need to use the same provider as there is no inter-service communication. In general, they are not considered private since the provider has access to your messages.
