Imagine an application that offered complete anonymity to its users Imagine also that such a tool allowed to send messages to any contact in the phonebook, whether or not they have this application. Would you use it to say good things or to say bad things? Roughly speaking, that is the premise of Blindspot, an interesting messaging proposal that is drawing the attention of ordinary users and also famosos, although more for its negative aspect that for being a harmless application.
And it is that Blindspot has an approach that is attracting the attention of the whole world for being the perfect tool for practices as reprehensible as bullying or harassment. An application that, however, stands out beyond its approach thanks to the investments that some celebrities are doing on it, and that not only give it the financial base it needs to continue growing, but also the fame that can make this anonymous messaging tool skyrocket to stardom. Of course, with examples like the failed Secret, it is clear that this type of app has a fairly short life.
The application itself is very simple. Just install it and start sending anonymous messages to friends or any contact in the phone bookThe interlocutors must have the app, otherwise Blindspot sends a SMS generic where it indicates that someone wants to send you a message, without informing the content. This message can be several lines of text, an image or even a voice note,whose return address is always hidden to protect your anonymity.
These conversations can be continued, exchanging messages until revealing the identity of the user who sent the first message. Thus, if desired, anonymity can be lifted to reveal reality and maintain a private and simple conversation through Blindspot, as if it were WhatsApp Of course, those responsible for this application heal in he alth by stating that their service is secure, since there is the possibility of blocking the anonymous senders that you want Of course, once the message has been read, the damage has already been done (in case of being a negative message).
The approach and controversy of some situations of bullying already denounced through this application have not stopped artists like singersNicky Minaj or Will.I.Am of invest in this service Although they are not the only ones, other American singers such as Drake and Kanye West are also among the names that have contributed money to the development of the application. Something that is explained thanks to the presence of his manager, who is, along with a billionaire of Russian origin , the true owners of the company that has developed this application, Shellanoo
The application is not receiving very good reviews in the usual download stores, because, beyond its problematic potential, it is not a very complete messaging tool.However, she has the support of personalities of the song that can take her to fame, beyond the 700,000 people who they have already decided to use it We will have to see if bullying or the harsh reality of anonymity does not end it as it already happened with another controversy application like Secret At the moment, Blindspot can be downloaded absolutely free throughGoogle Play Store for mobiles Android, and through App Store for iPhone
