Yeah but Briar communicates over Onion routing, good luck finding that in iOS. The local communications are of course not onion routed, goes without saying. It's a whole little tookit of subversive communication, including some anonymous and some not.
You mean like this? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/onion-browser/id519296448

It basically says what I would expect, but then I'm a tech-savvy privacy nerd who knows how this sort of tech works. Any particular reason you asked?
I've asked because the mac of your Bluetooth is linked to your device and therefore traceable to the user, don't you agree? and then, for what reason should I share the BT address with a remote contact that i will never see IRL?

#113Briar desperately needs a library for Linux and Windows that can be used to build all sort of applications. Discussion forums, group chat, IM, location-based messaging, email/mailing-list equivalents, blogs and offline websites and more. Not just one app.
Briar is actually built on a library called Bramble that can be used for offline-first p2p data syncing. There was recently a good talk by a Briar Dev going deeper into the Bramble protocol: https://nico.dorfbrunnen.eu/posts/2021/diving-at-xmpp/

Yeah I get what you mean, I didn't actually mean implementing it yourself, but just going to snapdrop.net. That should doable for most people I assume.
Assuming they're already on the same wireless network.
