That’s probably why I never got a Signal account. Normally, I would point to FireChat, but that was discontinued. Looks like Mesh.im is a replacement? I’ll have to look more into it. Encrypted, p2p, and mesh connections via LAN means it can’t be shutdown if the internet gets restricted during protests.
are you going to get everybody you meet to learn PGP.
When the alternative is to risk getting sent to the front line as a bullet sponge, yeah. Then again, any lgbt people practicing proper infosec isn’t going to be visible to surveys like this.

You’re missing a fundamental issue with these suggestions and even signal. In that the vast majority of people don’t care.
It’s great being on signal with two of my friends whilst the other 50 use WhatsApp which I refuse to do.
oh, I know people don’t care.
