• Sunbird, the iMessage app for Android, has temporarily shut down due to “security concerns” surrounding its end-to-end encryption. • Reports suggest that Sunbird may not have actually provided the promised level of encryption and was storing data externally. • The app was recently pulled from the Google Play Store and the company has yet to comment on the shutdown.
