I'm limiting the chat history of all charts to 7 days. You never know what will be used against you in the future.

Wouldn’t it be better to know?

What I mean is: your chat partners could archive your chats or some man in the middle. Better to know what you wrote, then to be blindsided later by somebody else who got hold of these archives.

i doubt that most of my chat partners have the capabilities to do that. and yes, it would be smart to make archives, but let the chat destroy itself after 7 days.
