This is indeed a great tool. Kudos for work. Some comments: 1. How is that iMessage, Facebook Chat or Hangouts are *independently* audited if there is no code available? 2. How is Skype communications "encrypted so the provider can't read" verified? (or even more important how is this compatible with Prism? ;)) 3. There should be a column "Does is it require to provide your phone number?", which should be considered a security drawback (especially for journalists or their sources). 4. Probably a column for extra points if an app can easily route traffic through Tor (like ChatSecure). 5. Not 100% sure, but I think that pidgin/libpurple have been audited in the past. ~nikos
