If someone sends me money with a memo not encrypted as "Drug Money" corresponding to a high amount, the first thing that comes to mind is it being a joke, because it has to be a joke. But then due to the nature of it being on the blockchain and the sender being put into investigation and receiver maybe, it doesn't look laughable months down the road. A blank transfer still raises questions especially in huge sum but doesn't have the same energy for suspicion as a huge sum transfer + encryption.

The value of the app is for users living with restricted means of communication where true censorship is a problem. If peakd domain can't be accessed, there will be more alternative sites to resort to. Censorship isn't an issue for most people until they are censored themselves and most just take their freedom of expression for granted. :/
