People are outraged over being spied on, but can't see the value in an private chat tool? Edit I meant private, not anonymous.

You think Snapchat is in any way anonymous or private?

Snapchat is not only not anonymous, but it's a pretty poor platform with a significant number of past security flaws. About six months ago their API was exposing cellphone numbers for any username (to their credit, when I pointed this out to them they did patch it pretty quickly). Hardly private.
