About Matrix Matrix is an open protocol for decentralised, secure communications.
Matrix Manifesto We believe:
People should have full control over their own communication. People should not be locked into centralised communication silos, but instead be free to pick who they choose to host their communication without limiting who they can reach. The ability to converse securely and privately is a basic human right. Communication should be available to everyone as a free and open, unencumbered, standard and global network.
What are the ongoing concerns ?

That link says nothing of the sort! It actually says that Matrix is a strong choice for privacy and the underlying protocol follows best practices for security.
What are these security concerns you’re talking about?
