Temporary solution: If you have multiple devices, you can create an account on NOFWD, and log into nofwd.com from each device. Now, NOFWD will see all of your devices as a single entity, and not self-destruct your messages that you view. This behavior can be ended by logging out again.

Long term: More generally, I want to expand the fingerprinting and management technology, so that the system can automatically learn users and not flag false-positives. Imagine how Paypal or Facebook detects that you're not logging in from one of your usual locations.

NDAs and other legal contracts are one existing solution to this problem, but those are very slow and heavy-weight. This is meant to be very fast and light-weight. Neither solution is bulletproof. Instead of choosing though, you could use both!
