You think Snapchat is in any way anonymous or private?

Yes, in every way that matters to most people.

Except for the ways in which people are outraged over being spied upon.

I feel you, but you're conflating "angry, principled nerds" with "most people". If you really think people outside your filter bubble are "outraged", look further.

I mostly agree, but I was responding to sp332's suggestion that Snapchat does anything to solve the NSA "problem".

Ah, I must've read your comment out of context. My bad!

"in every way that matters to most people"

It makes you think, doesn't it?

Maybe the NSA is funneling investment to get their hooks into Snapchat, preventing it from being used as a means for enemy spies and agents to send each other temporary messages.
