Privacy system

A computer program comprising program code embodied in at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, which when executed, enables a computer system to implement a method of exchanging private messages between users within an associated group of users, the method comprising:

• receiving a first message from a first client computing system associated with a first user within the group of users, wherein the first message includes private information;
• encrypting the first message into ciphertext;
• transforming the ciphertext into a second message, wherein the second message includes a quotidian message comprising mundane content unrelated in meaning and relevance to the first message;
• and
• outputting the second message to a second client computing system associated with a second user within the group of users, while maintaining the ciphertext exclusively in a storage component of the computer system.

A computer system having a processor and memory for exchanging private messages between users within an associated group of users wherein the computer system is operable to:

• receive a first message from a first client computing system associated with a first user within the group of users, wherein the first message includes private information;
• encrypt the first message into ciphertext;
• transform the ciphertext into a second message, wherein the second message includes a quotidian message that lacks a relevant relationship with the first message;
• store the second message and the ciphertext as a linked pair in a storage component of the computer system;
• and
• output the second message to a second client computing system associated with a second user within the group of users, while maintaining the ciphertext exclusively in the storage component of the computer system.
