Free communication is
a human right.
Freedom of speech is the right of every person, recognized by the UN, protected by the First Amendment, and violated every day in dozens of countries. Mold is a secure and protected messenger that returns this right to people. Protection of private correspondence is not a luxury, it is the foundation of freedom.
4.2 billion people live under internet censorship.
Authoritarian governments do not limit themselves to physical pressure on their citizens. They seize control over any civilian means of communication, block resources, slow access speeds, and declare illegal the services used by the entire civilized world. A real encrypted messenger without a phone number must be invisible to the digital systems that are tools in the hands of dictators.
Not for criminals.
For those who are forced to be silent.
Journalists
A reporter in Moscow investigates war crimes and must protect sources. Mold is a messenger without a phone number that does not store personal data and leaves no trace on the device when it is seized. In this case, a secure messenger is not a luxury, but a tool for those whose work often must be invisible.
Human rights defenders
Human rights defenders in Belarus coordinate people during repressive surges. The authorities monitor traffic, seize phones right on the street, force them to be unlocked. As a secure messaging app, Mold disguises itself, for example, as a calculator, and a duress password shows fake conversations while the real data is securely erased.
Ordinary people
A family split between borders wants to talk without the ears of the state. A student wants to discuss politics without fear. A doctor wants to share information during a crisis. Freedom of speech is a human right, not a privilege. A secure and protected messenger provides protection of private correspondence automatically.
"Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, 1948
The foundation of Mold.
Privacy by default in a secure messaging app
Many privacy settings are enabled by default. The user can strengthen or relax them at any time. A secure messaging app must provide your lawful right from the moment of installation, not after a long configuration.
Open source or nothing
Every line of source code, both server and client, is publicly available under the AGPL-3.0 license. Trust is not a promise, it is a fact. An encrypted messaging app you can fully trust is one with open source code.
No shelter for criminals
Mold is a tool of freedom, not impunity. Registered with NCMEC for child safety. Semi-annual transparency reports. We respond to all lawful requests under U.S. law. Criminals must have no shelter. Free people must have no chains. The most secure messaging app must balance between privacy and responsibility.
Blocking costs more
The entire security architecture of Mold is built in such a way that blocking it is more expensive than accepting its existence. The economics of censorship must work against the censor, not against the people. An end to end encryption messenger should always cost more to block than to tolerate.
Designed for the seized phone
Other messengers protect their traffic. We protect the channel, the device, and the user. Disguise, duress password, auto-deletion, Guardian Wipe. Among messengers, Mold is the first designed with such a package of protection. It is a true hidden messenger on the phone, the most secure messaging app for the reality where your device will be taken.
Personal data
The application does not collect personal data about its user or any other technical information. If the user decides to extend their profile with personal data, that will be their own decision. All profile data is stored on the servers in encrypted form and is not accessible to us for reading.
