Cons
Con Lack of privacy
Messenger is owned by Facebook. Based on their privacy policy, this means that any information you provide (including messages sent) are used by Facebook to profile you and sell access to your data to advertisers.
Con Lack of end-to-end encryption
Secret (end-to-end encrypted) chats are only supported in one-to-one messages, and are not enabled by default, and the encryption has not been verified independently.
Con Ticket cannot be manually cancelled / withdrawn by participants
Peatix currently does not have the ability to cancel their ticket by participants and must be done through contacting the event organizer. This will become a problem when event organizers do not respond to participants messages through Peatix.
