Last week was a whirlwind for Nothing. In the span of five days, the company announced, launched, and subsequently removed access to a chat application called Nothing Chats<\/strong>. This app, created in collaboration with a company named Sunbird, promised to bring iMessage support to the Nothing Phone 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

As soon as Nothing announced the app’s launch, many media outlets highlighted the app’s obvious and terrifying security risks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also pointed out that Sunbird’s technology wasn’t secure enough. Unfazed, Nothing issued several statements defending the app’s pedigree before ultimately launching it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less than 36 hours later, the app was partially disabled due to being a security and privacy nightmare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you’re a fan of Nothing, own a Nothing product, or even respect the company, one thing is very clear: we may forgive the company for this epic mistake, but we shouldn’t forget it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
