schestowitz-pi2<techrights-news> With Mumble, anyone can self-host (Murmur) one's private conversations and encrypt them (end to end). Why does the corrupt EFF keep shilling Signal instead of Free software?Apr 24 05:09
schestowitz-pi2<techrights-news> Mumble isn't even just an application like Signal but a whole raft of applications, for mobile devices too. It's like a protocol. Why won't the corrupt EFF promote real solutions? After Barlow died the corrupt EFF also badmouthed PGP-signed emails.... based on the idea it can be unsafe when you send WEB PAGES instead of actual Emails!Apr 24 05:09
