Suppose the bill goes through. Is there any reliable alternative for privately communicating? Asking for myself.
Wow, did you just really confess as an child porn distributor/consumer? Who else would need such an communication alternative?
... This is a really bad time for a "I am Spartacus" thing.
I don't think it would be enforceable for everyone hosting servers for themselves. I personally use XMPP, Matrix and recently Simplex.
Distributed/Federated apps probably? Session, Briar...
Overlay networks like Tor, I2P and Hyphanet (ex-Freenet)?
Oh, I didn't know Freenet had a successor. Did something happen to it?
Open Source. And fuck it, it's not enforceable for private anyway.
Open source what, specifically? And would they not be required to do the same things (which would be harder to enforce, but still)?
