Doesn't it depend on the application?

Messenger like the telegram are something different than sites like HN.

I am aware that I send my messages to HN, they are not forwarded to you but you open the HN page to read my response. HN is more like a message board with message hierarchy. The communication is public, the transmission path is encrypted.
