Suppose the bill goes through. Is there any reliable alternative for privately communicating? Asking for myself.

Wow, did you just really confess as an child porn distributor/consumer? Who else would need such an communication alternative?

... This is a really bad time for a "I am Spartacus" thing.

I don't think it would be enforceable for everyone hosting servers for themselves. I personally use XMPP, Matrix and recently Simplex.

Distributed/Federated apps probably? Session, Briar...

Overlay networks like Tor, I2P and Hyphanet (ex-Freenet)?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Oh, I didn't know Freenet had a successor. Did something happen to it?

Open Source. And fuck it, it's not enforceable for private anyway.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Open source what, specifically? And would they not be required to do the same things (which would be harder to enforce, but still)?
