I see random websites that aren’t open source saying they are “encrypted, safe”, when they obviously aren’t! Come on!

    My and i assume any software aware persons general assumption for a computer system is that it is insecure until proven otherwise. But even disregarding the whole open source thing, if they dont make you set your own encryption key, then it most likely wont be securely encrypted or they will just also have the key because they generated it for you in the background.
