As most people here might know, Session utilises a TOR-like onion routing system with some changes to route traffic. The username is the public key whilst the password is the private key.

Recently, a new project built on top of this seems to be in the works: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/freespeech/

I’d like to know the community’s opinion of session and how much would you trust its technology. Thanks!

    Simplifiedprivacy dot com needs to be blacklisted from Lemmy communities, it’s a blog trying to sell some really silly services.

    As for Session, they’ve never made an original product that I’ve ever seen - they took Signal and Monero, peeled off the labels, and made them (especially Signal, IMO) worse in both aesthetics and privacy protection.

    And the company behind this is in Australia, a country where you need to weaken products (by adding backdoors) upon government request.

    I think it’s an interesting project. However I am not a fan of their decision to omit forward secrecy, and have thus passed on using it. At least for now.

      I didn’t know they did that. Unless it’s a technical limitation of Loki Net (which should be worked on if that’s the case), this is borderline unacceptable for a product made for privacy. Thanks for pointing it out
