 Have you ever worried about third parties reading your messages? An App called Signal is on the market now for a while.

I think Facebook rebranding to meta is a good thing. If we really think about it, we are already living in the metaverse. But people tend to be afraid of new things, afraid of change so many are uncomfortable with the idea of Mark Zuckerberg’s vision.

Growing up in the Dominican Republic, we didn’t have very much but life was great, I loved it and see it as my home. I love the ocean and nature itself. When I got older I moved to Germany and that’s where my interest for computers & languages came from, my father.
