Free Personal Information Manager (PIM) Software - Efficcess Remote Communication - LibrePlanet This list is work in progress. We have not audited the software listed on this page for security or privacy concerns beyond what developers of the software, and potentially other sites tell us about it. We have done some initial research into software licenses. Entries with Free Software Directory links have been thoroughly reviewed from a licensing perspective. This page is a shared resource, and we encourage others to add to it, so some of the entries here may be added by members of the community. As more people are going remote, there is an outbreak of proprietary software happening around the Internet. Join the RemoteCommunication mailing list to coordinate!

I created a reddit-like site that bridges I2P, Tor and Yggdrasil to allow users to interact with one another without leaving their network of choice. (Also available on the clearnet) : i2p I hope that it's okay that I post this here. So, I wanted a reddit-like site that was: Lightweight / fastPrivacy focusedNot heavy on censorshipAnd integrated with "alternative internets" (Tor, I2P, Yggdrasil for now) This website is accessible as a service on each of the individual large anonymity networks allowing users of those networks to not leave their network of choice. Originally I wasn't going to have a clearnet version, but decided that bridging everyone into one place may serve valuable in getting regular, every day people more interested in online privacy and supporters of these various alternative networks. Anyway, it has just literally launched. You can access the website via the following networks / urls: There is also an I2P community on [RAMBLE] here: and I encourage the mods from /r/i2p to join there and I'll grant you mod access to that forum as well since you do a great job here.
Feedbin The New Oil You’re probably already aware that cell phones don’t communicate directly with other cell phones, they communicate with cell towers who make a mesh network with other cell towers to bounce your call, text, or other data from tower to tower until it reaches its destination. But you may not know that the internet works in a similar fashion. In this section, I want to explain how modern digital communication works to help you understand how some of the tools and techniques in later sections protect your communications.

Needless to say, your phone is pretty small, and trying to shoot out enough radio radiation to reach anywhere in the world would be extremely damaging to your health, and would require your phone to be literally massive, too big to be mobile. What is DNS?

Session | Send Messages, Not Metadata. | Private Messenger spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy: Matrix (An open network for secure, decentralized communication) server setup using Ansible and Docker Installing the new Dendrite Matrix Homeserver on Debian Buster | Pieter Hollander This post contains my personal notes on how to set up Dendrite, Matrix.org’s second-generation homeserver written in Go. These notes are not yet complete, but do contain the basics to get things going. Please note that Dendrite is in early beta and not yet recommended for use in production environments. For more information, refer to the README.md on Github and this blogpost on Matrix.org. For more information on Dendrite, have a look at the official Dendrite documentation. This post assumes you are using a system running Debian, either on bare-metal, virtualised or in an LXC container.
