Because I just came across it again: is anyone using the #Briar messenger? And if so how actively?

Quisiera usar más #Briar, me parece muy buena la app con el tema de los foros y los blogs. Solo tengo un contacto para interactuar, pero me gustaría formar parte de algún foro o grupo.

A post with some basic #opsec links:

On how Google and Apple have been spying on you via push notifications (for years): https://www.reuters.com/technology/cybersecurity/governments-spying-apple-google-users-through-push-notifications-us-senator-2023-12-06/

Signal statement on the subject by their CEO (they say that no sensitive data is included in their push notifications): https://mastodon.world/

Why should you still care?

  • Do a quick search for 'Michael Hayden" + “We Kill People Based on Metadata” (obviously use anything but google)

The Electric Frontier Foundation @eff is a good place to check for updates and an account to follow to choose the tools that are right for you.

#Deltachat, a cross platform chat program relying on the IMAP/SMTP protocol (email) with easy to set up encryption via autocrypt: https://delta.chat/en/help#encryption-and-security

Deltachat relies on IMAP/SMTP (emailK so make sure that you set up a new address with a provider you trust and use an username that can't be linked back to your usual nicknames or worse: your government name.

#Briar is an IM client with mesh support (aka peer to peer) you can restrict communication to your local network to Bluetooth, and redirect internet traffic via tor: https://briarproject.org/manual/
Do note that any blog you posted can't ever be deleted and that you will systematically be sharing your Bluetooth address (you can nuke your account at any time)

#Tails is a portable OS which allows you to "temporarily turn your own computer into a secure machine. You can also stay safe while using the computer of somebody else": https://tails.net/about/index.en.html

Obviously you should be aware of #Tor : https://www.torproject.org/ and check your fedi account for common mistakes: https://distro.f-91w.club/masto-opsec

Last but not least, for IRL shit this is as good a place to start as any: https://opsec.riotmedicine.net/ (by @hakan_geijer)

Stay safe, wear a mask, be they, do crimes and ffs, don't ever talk about the later!

And if you do have a criticism towards the one or other mentioned app, please do share it!

Die Diskussionen über die Messenger-Matrix sind in der Regel spannend, manchmal aber auch herausfordernd/anstrengend. Wir haben nicht nur ca. 84 Millionen Bundestrainer, sondern auch Messenger-Experten. 😉

You know what I'd love to see?

A FOSS, p2p video messaging app.

Because #MarcoPolo is kinda buggy, and I just don't trust it.

Something like #Briar (doesn't require any server storage)

Is there anything in that prevents mass surveillance? seems like (most) meta data is shared openly between federated nodes, wouldn't be hard to info mine or index the fediverse, especially if you're a giant corporation or modern intelligence agency.

If you're seriously interested in look into something and ideally built on top of a distributed like or like or maybe also i. e , is cool also

#TIL that #Briar now has desktop apps in beta testing:

Last I heard it was only available on Android.

are always a struggle...
is awesome but isn't decentralized
is awesome and decentralized but leaks metadata
is awesome but isn't decentralized
is awesome but is only available for Android

Currently using and with my main focus on Matrix because of it being decentralized, but I wish Matrix would be a bit better in regards to preventing metadata leakage.

Which messenger do you use and what's your opinion about this topic?

"Criminals have used telephones and mobile phones since they were invented. Drug smugglers use airplanes and boats, radios and satellite phones. Society survives all of this because the good uses of infrastructure far outweigh the bad uses, even though the good uses are – by and large – small and pedestrian and the bad uses are rare and spectacular."

From 2009, still relevant. #india
The call then was to ban Google Earth, now it is apps like #element and #briar.
