Imagine joining IRC channel and all messages are as meanningfull as reading base64 strings aloud aka all are somehow encrypted messages.
Now you can cryptographically check to who you are talking.
No other party can read your plain text.
You can pick any cryptographic property you like future proofing or deniability, etc.
Becouse IRC is just very nice transport.
And clients can be very easily scrypted to encrypt and display just human readable text.
You can even relay messages to wherever you want, HR lady, video player, anywhere.
Try that with Matrix or Discord ;)
- Anon1096 8mo agoThat is indeed how Matrix works already. And Discord is also doable with https://gitlab.com/An0/SimpleDiscordCrypt https://gitlab.com/An0/SimpleDiscordCrypt
- Woodi 8mo agoO, didn't know that. I think I had in mind triviality of adding client-side encryption to IRC messages. However server side... :) Looked probably twice to hosting Matrix server and Java part was fat no no. And Discord one-click "servers" ? :) Edit: Ok, can't find any Java in Matrix servers context... Must be I messed it with Signal server.
