Guiding principles

  • Everyone is blocked by default
  • Can only message contacts where there is mutual agreement (i.e. both have added each other)
  • Text only
  • Transit over open protocols
  • Mandatory encryption of communication stream
  • Mandatory encryption of data (E2EE)
  • No read receipts
  • No way to know if someone has added/removed you from their contacts
  • Messaging someone who hasn't added you to contacts = message silently deleted

Thoughts

  • How to avoid a centralised server
  • Can messages be delivered over Tor?
  • How to deliver messages when the recipient isn't online
  • How to generate unique usernames
