Is this actually true? Is anyone in Iran using Briar?

  Just the layout seems so awful. As if noboy ever optimised this for real people.

  I would be very surprised if they were. Bluetooth's range is far too limited for this to be useful or to make a workable mesh. Seems like the GPG of comms.

    Yeah, the problem with these mesh networks is that for them to work, you need high transmit powers typically not found in off the shelf stuf (because it would be illegal). A would-be opressor can just have a van full of antennas drive through the neighborhood and triangulate all those transmitters, after which you'll get caught. It's like using high-powered flashlights to covertly message each other.

  Presumably OP is, at least.
