Private Alternative
Best Skype Alternative for Privacy
A secure Skype alternative for private conversations
Skype is owned by Microsoft and has a history of surveillance cooperation. zkChat provides encrypted communication independent of any big tech company.
Why Switch from Skype?
Skype is owned by Microsoft and has cooperated with surveillance programs
Skype's encryption is not end-to-end by default
Skype requires a Microsoft account, zkChat requires nothing
Skype stores chat history on Microsoft's servers
