The news of Giphy’s acquistion has inspired the following revolutionary product--Secret Computing for Animated GIFs (SCAG™). Let’s be honest, humans loooove animated GIFs. In fact, it’s such a novel concept that FB wrote a check for $400 million; it may seem like a lot of money (unless you’re FB), but as the saying goes a picture is worth a thousand words while a GIF is worth a $1000. So, you may wonder what the heck does Secret Computing and GIFs have in common? I am glad you asked.
Steganography has been around since the ancient Greek times; in fact it’s one of the oldest technologies known to mankind. Some of the most highly-educated criminals have mastered the art of Steganography through electronic communication. But to an average person, it remains virtually unknown. By combining GIFs with Steganography we will enable humans to continue to enjoy their favorite social activity while secretly communicating with their friends. SCAG™ is the only technology which allows end-to-end encryption via the most popular social embedding. Hence, it is uniquely positioned for en masse adoption.
