"Google is building a new mobile-messaging service that taps its artificial intelligence know-how and so-called chatbot technology to try to catch up with rivals..."

Or they could, you know, fix notifications in Android's Hangouts app.

> Is there currently human technology that does anything similar to this?

Steganography. Not "background", in the sense that images are generally considered useful, but it is hiding information in a place that a casual onlooker would not think to look.

> Encryption is applied on the data layers not to hide that something is being transmitted, but what is being transmitted.

That's exactly why this encryption would be strong. Initially, no one thinks to look for signals that don't look like signals.

I'm a PHP web developer with past Python experience. I'm looking for a place to work that is serious about their business goal. In return, I'll work hard to help them reach that goal.

Blockchain! But seriously, I'd do a rewritable optical media, a flash drive, and a spinning drive. I'd do checksums on existing data any time you write to it to ensure nothing has been lost. I'd also do some sort of versioning at each write and actually keep a full copy of the data before the write. That last part could get unwieldy if your data grows over a lot time.

And I would double each storage media and keep one set off site.

This is all a little much for anything less than a "I NEVER can lose this data" requirement.

I specialize in CakePHP and Django web development, but I'm always interested in branching out. I have a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. I like having a challenging side-project going at all times, currently http://redreader.co.

I was wondering why New Relic kept saying my .co had DNS errors...
