What do you guys, gals and enbies think about Briar?
It's a p2p communication program but for once has a different approach.
From wiki:
>…communications with no centralized servers and minimal reliance on external infrastructure. Messages can be transmitted through Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, over the internet via Tor or removable storage, such as USB sticks.
Anyway, seems like a neat idea but maybe I'm missing something
I used to use Briar for a while. it's pretty neat. for those who don't know, its main selling point is that it is metadata resistant. its main downside when I used it was battery usage, because it had to stay connected to Tor. message delivery is also an issue, because both users have to be online. in a group chat this is easier, but it's still necessary for a critical mass of people to be online for messages to percolate
