Summary: The above LibrePlanet talk by Sean O’Brien and Mikalai Birokou (physical presence) was uploaded by the FSF (PeerTube link) 6 days plus 6 hours ago; From the official page: "This session will demonstrate the current status of 3NWeb protocols and client using Trisquel GNU/Linux and RYF hardware. 3NWeb use cases include encrypted messaging and storage. The protocols can be run over anonymous Free Software networks such as Tor and are agnostic in regard to addressing. For example, nodes can be communicated with via .onion hidden services or IPFS namespaces."

Notice/side note: Unlike ‘Gulagboy’ Matthew Garrett, they do not advocate outsourcing "trust" to Microsoft (which would be the complete opposite of security), but when Microsofters infiltrate projects this is what's promoted at the expense of users' safety.
