The Babble app is a privacy tool designed for content creators and other Internet users who would like to protect their online contents or communications with others from unwanted AI/manual analysis and surveillance. It contains 2 components, Babble and Hina, to protect your text and image published online respectively. Babble protects your article published online and your chatting with others by encrypting your content with a password. Only people who has the same password can decrypt and read your content. Hina protects your images posted online or sent to others by encrypting them with a password (can be the same password you use for Babble).
