This is what the #police think about our #children đŸ˜±

enter image description here

Some advice for the really cool kids:

  • install #Kali on your #computer - delete #Windows
  • encrypt your HD and have a kill switch.
  • don't use #Discord there are better #FLOSS alternatives like #xmpp with #Omemo, #matrix, #tox and others...
  • #Pineapple is too expensive. Build it on your own with a #RaspberryPi.
  • Hack the WiFi of authorities and leak the data anonymously on the darknet. Don't use this to stalk your ex girl friend! Public data should be public but respect the #privacy of normal people.
  • learn #Python and write your own scripts.
  • try to be a white hat. If you need money use bug bounty. Please don't sell exploits to our enemies like the secret service.
  • build a network. You don't have to be a lonely wolf. If things are to big for you send them with a good explanation to organisations like EFF, Wikileaks, CCC, cryptome.org, The Intercept, La Quadrature du Net (LQDN),...
  • Hack the planet and have fun. Teach others at your local hacker space.

Messagerie XMPP. (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol)

https://www.chapril.org/XMPP.html
XMPP : Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol
(je suis loin d'ĂȘtre un spĂ©cialiste, mais d'autres ici sauront complĂ©ter, au cas zou)

#Alternative Ă  #Whatsapp #Signal #Telegram, etc.
L'intĂ©rĂȘt ? Il n'y a plus de serveur central, et plus besoin de numĂ©ro de tĂ©lĂ©phone pour crĂ©er un compte.
Il faut donc choisir un serveur :

Installer et commencer Ă  utiliser une #Messagerie #XMPP
Choisir un provider, c'est-Ă -dire un serveur :
- Voici une liste : https://providers.xmpp.net/
Préférer ceux basés en Europe, éviter ceux aux USA, pour éviter la #surveillance.

Je conseillerais que les membres d'un mĂȘme groupe (famille, groupe d'amis, etc) ne prennent pas le mĂȘme provider, comme ça les discussions seront Ă©parpillĂ©es sur plusieurs serveurs. C'est l'intĂ©rĂȘt d'un systĂšme de messagerie #dĂ©centralisĂ©.

"Conversations" pour Android est trĂšs bien, et "Gajim" pour le pc Linux.
"Siskin" pour IOS est bien, il paraĂźt, mais je n'en sais pas plus (si quelqu'un veut donner son avis, sur IOS?)

Si quelqu'un installe de suite le client sans avoir pris un provider, "Conversations" par exemple, proposera de créer un compte.

C'est trÚs simple en fait : pseudo et mot de passe, hop, c'est réglé.
Pas besoin de numéro téléphone.

Ensuite, dans chaque client, il faudra trouver les options oĂč cocher, pour valider tous ensemble le chiffrement #OMEMO, et aussi entre vos appareils : du #smartphone de Patrick au pc de Patrick.
Cette manip est à faire au début, aprÚs c'est réglé, sauf si nouvel appareil qui entre dans la boucle.

https://www.chapril.org/XMPP.html :

le protocole XMPP propose un mĂ©canisme de chiffrement de bout-en-bout nommĂ© OMEMO. Ce mĂ©canisme garantit que vos messages ne peuvent pas ĂȘtre lus par quelqu’un d’autre que vous-mĂȘme et vos correspondants. Chapril, ou n’importe quel autre fournisseur de XMPP d’ailleurs, n’a alors aucun moyen d’accĂ©der au contenu de vos Ă©changes et ne peut donc pas les revendre.

Attention toutefois, il faut bien garder Ă  l’esprit que si le contenu des conversations n’est pas accessible, les #mĂ©ta-donnĂ©es quant-Ă -elles le seront toujours. En particulier pour chaque message envoyĂ© il est possible de connaĂźtre la date, l’heure, la taille approximative du message ainsi que l’identifiant XMPP du destinataire.

If any of you have been on the fence about getting a Jabber account, now is literally the best time in Jabbers history to do it. The servers are better than ever, the clients and features are better than ever, OMEMO encryption has made shit so much more easy and secure. Android and iOS clients exist and are great. Jabber is in the best place it's ever been in right now.

There are even more servers than ever out there. I'll just list a few off the top of my head here:

https://xmpp.is/about/server/
https://jabber.hot-chilli.net/
https://404.city/
https://lain.church/
https://creep.im/

You can find more servers and see which have the best crypto here:

https://xmpp.net/directory.php
https://compliance.conversations.im/

You can look for conference rooms here:

https://search.jabber.network/rooms/1

Here are some clients:

https://gajim.org/download/
https://github.com/dino/dino/wiki/Distribution-Packages
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.siacs.conversations/

Go nuts. Now's the time.

In no particular order, web sites like OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia, Archive.Org, Sci-Hub, tools like I2P, Tor, IRC, GPG, OMEMO, OTR, and open and federated protocols like Jabber, Email, Diaspora and ActivityPub are the most important projects on the internet and should be protected and exalted.

Have a look at the announcement

Feaures:

  • #OMEMO and OpenPGP
  • send messages to individuals as well as to private group chats and public channels.

  • advanced message search globally or within one conversation

You can very easely compile it by yourself: https://github.com/dino/dino/wiki/Build#dependencies

Like it mention here, I for examble have to set the : --with-libsignal-in-tree flag for my build.

Why we don't publish at the Play Store

We got some requests recently, asking, why we do not publish #dandelion at the #GooglePlay.
So here are our main reasons, why we don't plan to uploadthe app there currently.

First of all, we do not comply with Googles terms of service. Having to pay ~25€ to Google who did not write the app and does not respect your freedom nor your privacy on its platforms (Youtube, GMail...) just doesn't feel right.
We believe, that our userbase is well aware of the privacy concerns that come with using Google's Services, so many diaspora* users actually get their apps through F-Droid (which is great).
Second, if a user that does not know about F-Droid yet wants to use dandelion* and searches for it, they'll hopefully find out about the F-Droid project and may get in touch with free software that way.
So by not publishing to Google Play, we hope to get more people to understand, use and appreciate free and open source software.

If you find dandelion* on the Play Store, please be aware, that you likely just found a version built by someone else. We can not guarantee that such a version has not been tampered with in terms of #malware, so we highly discourage you to use it.
It should be clear, that we'll never charge you any money for using, downloading, sharing or modifying the app.
Note also, that we won't support those versions.

If you want to dontate to the project to support the developers, and keep them motivated, please feel free to contact us :D
As always, you can help us by submitting bug reports, code and/or translations on github and crowdin.


PS: We maintainers (@gsantner and @vanitasvitae) will soon have more time again to actively work on the app.
The last weeks we were distracted with educational work, so here is some background information:

@gsantner was working on another FLOSS app called Froody, which lets you share (naturally growing) food and other things with others. He hopes to enable people to live a more sustainable life. The main idea is to share to and help other people by e.g. sharing pears, which would rot anyway if unused.Everything is built with international use in mind.
The app is available at https://github.com/froodyapp/froody-android, and is currently available in #English, #German and #Japanese. Also translatable on Crowdin.
He also writes his bachlor thesis about Open Source and Android, which will be completed in summer and likely to be released in an appropiate free license.

@vanitasvitae is writing his bachelor thesis about an #OMEMO module for #Smack, a #XMPP library used by many free messengers like #Jitsi or #Kontalk.
He hopes to enable those messengers to #encrypt your communication end-to-end using the OMEMO protocol introduced by #conversations.
He'll also attend #FOSDEM in #brussels by the way, so if you are there you might meet him and chat a little ;)


Sharing welcome!
