IMPORTANT NOTE - READ FIRST:

This is still a work-in-progress and a close-source project (This is what a honeypot would look like). To view the open source MVP version see here. NONE of my projects have been audited or reviewed. I provide them for testing and demo purposes only. NOT to replace your current messaging app (or any other app you use).

BE RESPONSIBLE WHEN USING UNAUDITED SOFTWARE... DO NOT USE FOR SENSITIVE PURPOSES.


Now that I've hit you over the head with caution...

Want to send encrypted WebRTC messages and video calls with no downloads, no sign-ups and no tracking?

This prototype uses WebRTC to establish an encrypted browser-to-browser connection. Everything is ephemeral and cleared when you refresh the page - true zerodata privacy!

Check out the pre-release demo here.

It's a webapp hosted on AWS S3. That can be shut down along with the domain. I'd like to improve the functionality I have for the cacheing, so that it doesn't need to fetch the statics from online if it already previously fetched them.

The open source version has a mirror hosted on GitHub pages. You can fork it and run it yourself there for free: https://positive-intentions.com/blog/docker-ios-android-desktop#github-pages
