If Twitter does somehow survive the ongoing metamorphic chaos, whatever emerges could include encrypted 'secret conversations' it seems.
Although it's very early days yet, one would assume that such secret conversations would be a feature only available to those $8 Twitter Blue subscribers. If so, then it's hard to envisage how Musk would be able to get any level of 'critical mass' to compete with the established end-to-end encrypted messaging players such as WhatsApp primarily, but also the likes of Signal.
I have approached the Twitter communications team for comment and will update this story if any is forthcoming.
