Primer
Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
Burner Note is a free, open-source service for sending encrypted, self-destructing notes. The platform uses AES-256-CBC encryption with zero-knowledge architecture, ensuring messages are automatically deleted after being read and cannot be accessed by the service itself. This is the second launch of the product, which emphasizes privacy, security, and being ad-free.
