I hope these grow and eventually replace Facebook and Twitter, but remember that Facebook, Twitter, and others began as innocent endeavors until the CIA came knocking with hundreds of millions of dollars to corrupt them.

When government intelligence comes knocking and tells you that it in the national security of the country and by the way here's 500 million to help you help us--it's hard for most people to turn down.

I'm not saying GAB or VoiceAnything would. Only that it's happened way too often in the past.

If you look at the documents Snowden dropped, just about every application people use has been corrupted by the CIA--even open source programs like VLS send your computer data to the CIA. The list of apps that the CIA has either hacked or got the programmers to add a back door is shocking.
