Meshtastic is interesting, but apps that work on every phone over bluetooth and wifi would have better reach, and simpler setup

Or better yet over encrypted mesh network Wi-Fi. Bluetooth is pretty insecure.

Every protocol needs this.

Briar: "Censorship-resistant peer-to-peer messaging that bypasses centralized servers. Connect via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or Tor, with privacy built-in."

Secure messaging, anywhere - Briar

Secure messaging, anywhere

Would be cool to have bluetooth & wifi sync on native Nostr apps. Would be useful in offline situations and countries where the internet is censored.

Signatures and Encryptions fix any issue it might have.

Nostr Dev Team _@nostrdev.com 11 months ago

No, but we'd be up for doing it once we get funding and start on the android app SIGit data is signed and encrypted without metadata leakage, so it can travel quite safely over an insecure channel such as bluetooth

Neither Briar nor Simplex support using multiple clients with the same account, which is too bad.

How insecure is Bluetooth? 👀

MoneRogue MoneRogue@coinos.io 11 months ago

To the point where everyone knows where you're at. It's almost as bad as GPS.

Not to mention Briar is exclusive to Android devices.

I was not aware. I'm gonna have to do my own research. Is it related to the Apple low-energy bluetooth GPS thingie? Or bluetooth in general?

MoneRogue MoneRogue@coinos.io 11 months ago

In general.
