If your app is not popular with terrorists and child rapists, it is not secure.

I doubt that is 100% true in either direction. People, especially non geeks can be duped into thinking something is secure

If an app is popular only with terrorists and child rapists, it's a weird choice for a business.

I know Australia's Ex-Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, used Wickr while he was in office.[0]
