❖ Literature Review-
❖ Research Article:
Problem: Managing the trade-off between increasing user base and maintaining high-
level encryption and privacy features.
Decision Challenge: Deciding whether to implement features that might attract a larger
user base but could potentially compromise certain privacy principles.
3. Feature Development:
Problem: Managing user feedback and feature requests while maintaining the app's
simplicity.
Decision Challenge: Prioritizing user feedback and feature requests in a way that aligns
with Signal's core values and goals.
Research Questions:
1. How aware are current and potential users of the privacy features offered by Signal?
2. How satisfied are users with Signal's existing privacy features, such as end-to-end encryption
and disappearing messages?
3. When it comes to messaging apps, what privacy aspects (e.g., encryption, data storage) do
users consider most important?
4. How does Signal stack up against its main competitors in terms of privacy features? What
are Signal's strengths and weaknesses in this area? Are there any opportunities to improve, and
what potential threats does Signal face regarding user privacy?
Research Objectives:
1. Assess the level of awareness among current and potential users regarding Signal's
privacy features.
2. Gauge user satisfaction with Signal's existing privacy features, including end-to-end
encryption, disappearing messages, and other security measures.
3. Determine the relative importance users place on different privacy aspects (e.g.,
encryption, data retention policies) concerning messaging apps.
4. Compare Signal's privacy features with those of key competitors to identify strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
