We plan to provide end-to-end encryption to users for whom we can verify identity, thereby limiting harm to these vulnerable groups. Free users sign up with an email address, which does not provide enough information to verify identity.” Right now, it is not clear when this feature will be launched; however, beta will arrive in July. Furthermore, one thing is confirmed, paid, and unpaid both users will get the same kind of treatment when it comes to an end to end encryption and enhanced security.
