 It's also inexplicably funded by global village which includes Gates , Bezos and Zuckerberg . 
 Realistically, how much of a concern is this? given that the project is open-source ? 
 when using the terminal app, is there a way to password protect / encrypt the local user profile db?
I'm assuming that without this, an attacker would have full access to chat history, if they took possession of the hdd / machine ? 
 Any support with Nostr?
