not sure how important that is next to not dying of hunger, being blown up, loosing friends, family and strangers, being erased and treated like an animal, but, you know. it's a start...
whats going to happen when adversarial entities perform a supply chain attack and booby trap these devices with c4 and kill all the users (men, women and children). we already know there are parties that are perfectly happy to make no distinction when killing them.
in the context of some encrypted vhf military radio, whats going to happen when adversarial entities use an anti-radiation missile to home in and blow the soldier up? like it's not that you're wrong, but that's not really in the scope of the problem being solved.

2. No matter how much this conflict is being mislabeled as "genocide" by the interested parties, it doesn't change the reality that it isn't one by any measure¹.
I'm not afraid to sign my name under this statement either; see:

The double-think rewriting of dictionary related to Israel-Palestine wars is outright Orwellian.
Note that your link [1], from 2024, doesn't even claim that genocide is taking place in Gaza, and that the adequate amount of aid has since reached Gaza (particularly if you count aid stolen by Hamas within Gaza).
A reminder for the all the goldfish out there that a ceasefire in Gaza has been in effect for a month already, and that active and ongoing genocides (like the one in Sudan²) have been collectively ignored by people abusing that word.

Do you actually believe this, or are you just rage-baiting?

Is it actually being used in Palestine? My problem is that when you are actually locally near someone you don't really need live chat; and if you're far, it might become too unstable to use. But I might be wrong!
it’s not just chat over Bluetooth, the message is relayed over a mesh so you can chat with people much further than Bluetooth range.

Why are international journalists banned from entering Gaza then? No, Gaza is in rubble. The people are starving to death. A man made famine made by Israel in hopes to ethnically cleanse the land.

You are right but as German if I made that point publicly in regards to Palestine I would get arrested. I am not exaggerating It is crazy how we have dehumanized Palestinians to the point that just hinting on the fact that they might have a right to resist it completely taboo. Like you don't have to agree with their methods but expecting them to do nothing while Israel murders them and the world looks away is such a…
>I would get arrested Have you considered getting a gun? Why or why not?
I assume to unset it just have to use /pass without arguments?
What an awesome piece of technology. I've been wanting to create something similar, just on the technical merits. We have some pretty amazingly capable technology these days, but so much of it relies on IP infrastructure, which is fine when things work and you are either aligned with your government, or live in a society where there are strong checks and balances on government overreach.
Exactly. With Chat Control being revived again in the EU, various VPN bans being proposed in US states, and ID verification rolling out seemingly everywhere, this kind of tech may end up being more useful than people expect. If it works in the extremely adversarial environment of a warzone, it should work fine here.
Worse: they might demand a list of people who have it installed (and this violates the Chat Control law of course).
Even worse: this app turns out to be written by a security agency or scammers and starts exploiting people.
