Privnote-messages that self destruct

logo
Have you ever sent a message that you didn’t want to send from your own email or anything associated with you.
I know I have
Well a solution is here, Privnote- “send notes that will self destruct after being read”

Go to Privnote write a note, copy the link and email it to your recipient, your recipient clicks the link and gets below
Privnote

Your recipient reads it, the note is destroyed, should anyone click the link again they get the below message
privnote2

    Google taught us that a destroyed message might be a flag in a database, so destroyed just becomes hidden.

    Is that website trustable? Who guarantees me that data are really removed from their infrastructure?

    Who’s going to stop people from simply printing out the message?
