The previous "King of the Hill" in encrypted messaging apps was Signal. Yes, Signal's messages were encrypted, but you could see who they were going to. A prominent financial whistleblower was recently caught by using Signal (Natalie Edwards), because investigators only had to look at who her messages were going to (even if the content itself was encrypted). Yes, Natalie was sending messages to the journalist who broke her story concerning leaked docs (from U.S. government agency FinCen). Session app doesn't leave a trace of the contents, OR who the message is going to. A valuable tip for you and your friends. Here's a summary: Session is: - decentralised - onion-routed - anonymous account creation - e2ee by default - funded by a registered non-profit org - fully open source (clients and server) - independently audited (clients and server).
True freedom of speech is coming. Encryption is getting us there. The creepy human controllers in big government are losing their grip.
True freedom of speech? Whatever that means. It has existed for decades under the belly of the internet. Young people are too fucking stupid to figure it out. They are not phone phreakers. It's called IRC and Usenet, d00ds, d00ders, or d00derinos if yer not into the whole brevity thing.
From what I read, Session is focused mainly on user privacy and communication encryption. The platform is based on decentralized servers connected to a global routing network and does not require users for any personal information when creating an account. I don't know how you can reset password, for example, if needed. But does anyone use it?
When will they learn, the appearance of encryption is the trap. Best to hide in plain sight on a major platform. So, maybe time for boomers to learn what free speech actually is? Or just let them rant to nobody from a broom cupboard on their tin can and string.
