⚡️Jack Dorsey’s Bitchat- built in a weekend?
Last month, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey launched a new decentralized app: Bitchat—created in a weekend using AI.
Read full article on Substack
It’s a Bluetooth mesh messaging app: no accounts, no phone numbers, no internet required.
⚠️ Beware of fake versions! Only download from bitchat.free
🔐 Bitchat uses:
• Bluetooth mesh networking (like Briar)
• The Noise Protocol (used by Signal & Wireguard)
• Ephemeral peer IDs for privacy
Useful in protests or blackouts—but with a 30m hop limit, it's only effective in dense areas. Max reach? ~300m if 10+ devices relay the message.
🤔 Built for iOS (a closed, vulnerable system) and developed by someone with ties to U.S. State Dept., it raises questions.
So is it a real privacy tool—or a showcase for Dorsey’s coding AI “Goose”? Either way, it hints at a new tech era: anyone can build powerful tools—fast.

Unboxing Elecrow ThinkNode M1 & M2 | #Meshtastic Setup, Field Test, Review & Off-Grid Comms Breakdown
https://rumble.com/v6v1uk1
In this video, I take you deep into the world of off-grid communication as I unbox and test two brand-new devices from Elecrow: the ThinkNode M1 and ThinkNode M2. These tools come pre-installed with Meshtastic firmware and are built for encrypted, decentralized communication — no SIM card, no Wi-Fi, and no cell towers required. Whether you’re prepping for a blackout, building a resilient mesh network, or just exploring survival tech, this video is packed with everything you need to know.
We start with a full unboxing of both devices, breaking down what makes each unique. The ThinkNode M1 is powered by the nRF52840 chip and includes a GPS module for location tracking, a 1.54” sunlight-readable EPD screen, and a 1200mAh battery built to last over 48 hours. It’s rugged, outdoor-ready, and ideal for emergency kits or remote travel. In contrast, the ThinkNode M2 is lighter, smaller, and powered by the ESP32-S3 chip. It includes a 1.3” OLED display, Bluetooth support, a 1000mAh battery, and is better suited for modular integration or stealthy builds.
After the unboxing, I walk you through a step-by-step setup of each device using the Meshtastic mobile app. I show you how to configure them, pair with Bluetooth, and get your private mesh network up and running in minutes. From there, I run live tests to see how each device performs in real-world conditions and compare their features, form factor, and best use cases.
If you’re interested in off-grid privacy tools, these are two of the most beginner-friendly and capable devices out there right now. I also include a breakdown of which device might be better depending on your needs—whether you’re building a neighborhood mesh or planning for emergency scenarios.
Make sure to check out the official product pages using the links below. These links track monthly performance, so I appreciate your support if you use them:

https://www.elecrow.com/blog/lora-modules-giveaway-and-pcb-assembly-sponsorship.html?idd=5
These tools are more than tech — they represent freedom. In a world where networks can go dark and censorship can silence, devices like these keep people connected, informed, and in control. With Meshtastic and LoRa, you are the signal. You are the network. And it’s all open source.
If you found this helpful, drop a comment, like the video, and subscribe for more content on off-grid tech, cybersecurity gadgets, and digital autonomy. Let me know which one you’d trust in your blackout bag — the rugged M1 or the sleek, portable M2.

The open-source mobile app Organic Maps is used by millions of people on both the Android and iOS platforms. In addition to featuring offline maps (generated from OpenStreetMap cartography) and turn-by-turn navigation, it also promises its users greater privacy than proprietary options. However, controversial decisions taken by the project's leaders, feelings of disenfranchisement among contributors, and even accusations of embezzlement have precipitated a divide in the community, leading to a new fork called CoMaps.

Quiet v5.1.2
=> https://tryquiet.org/
Quiet is an alternative to team chat apps like Slack, Discord, and Element that does not require trusting a central server or running one's own. In Quiet, all data syncs directly between a team's devices over Tor with no server required.
NOTE: #Quiet is not audited and should not be used when privacy and security are critical. It lacks basic features and probably won't replace your Slack or Discord yet. That said, it works surprisingly well and we use it daily as a Slack replacement.

A View on the Open-Source Video Editing Landscape
https://youtu.be/qEYGGqolEvs
https://media.ccc.de/v/lgm25-upstream-2025-83652-a-view-on-the-open-source-video-editing-landscape
Whether it is stitching together some travel footage or producing high-quality film content, there are many ways people want to work with the medium "video". Their needs for #video #editing solutions are diverse, and so is their budget.
Open-source video editing software seems great for beginners to get started at zero cost. What do you get and what do you have to give up on compared to the closed-source options? What does it even take to build software like this from scratch, technologically as well as mentally?
This talk takes a brief look at the free-to-use options for video editing on a desktop computer before switching the perspective to that of the developers and maintainers of such software. It offers insights into the struggles with technology, fundraising, self-motivation, and community dynamics, while also highlighting the rewarding moments and intriguing current and future developments.

Latest IronFox for Android update
Updated to Firefox 138.0.
Updated to Phoenix 2025.04.27.1. - (See changes from the last IronFox release)
Added a toggle under Privacy and security in settings to control Safe Browsing. Note that this requires a restart to take effect.
Added toggles under Privacy and security -> Site settings to control JavaScript, JIT, and WebAssembly. (Note that the JIT toggle requires a restart to take effect). Due to the addition of these toggles, we've now enabled WebAssembly by default (due to the notable breakage it causes), though users are recommended to disable it if possible to improve security. JIT will remain disabled by default.
Neutered the mozAddonManager API to restrict its capabilities and limit the data shared with Mozilla, while still allowing users to install extensions from addons.mozilla.org.
We now harden FPP (Fingerprinting Protection) and set our overrides to unbreak websites internally, instead of using the privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides & privacy.fingerprintingProtection.overrides preferences like we have previously. This makes it far easier for users to add their own overrides if needed. If you have previously configured either of these preferences, it is highly recommended to reset them after updating to these release. If you would like to disable our overrides to unbreak websites (as well as Mozilla's), you can do so by setting privacy.fingerprintingProtection.remoteOverrides.enabled to false in your about:config.
Added a Quick fixes list to uBlock Origin by default to allow us to work-around/fix issues caused by our default config significantly faster (while we wait on the upstream list maintainers to fix the issues...).
Implemented LibreWolf's Remote Settings Blocker patch to allow us (and users) to limit what collections are read/downloaded from Mozilla, and reduce the data shared. Users can configure this from the browser.ironfox.services.settings.allowedCollections preference in the about:config, though we would not recommend editing this unless necessary, as the collections we allow by default were carefully considered and provide important functionality, including for security.
Improved visibility of domains in the URL bar to better protect against phishing. - (Thanks to @mimi89999! 💜)
Significantly improved upon and expanded Mozilla's built-in certificate pinning to protect against MITM attacks. If you're a website operator and would like your domain to be added or want to request details be changed, please file an issue!
Took back control of all Safe Browsing preferences, meaning these can now be freely controlled by the users from the about:config (with the exception of browser.safebrowsing.malware.enabled & browser.safebrowsing.phishing.enabled - these are controlled by the new toggle in Settings). For example, users can now set their own custom Safe Browsing provider if desired, disable our proxy and revert back to Google's standard domains, etc...
Hardened the internal PDF Viewer (PDF.js) with changes inspired by GrapheneOS's PDF Viewer. - #79
Disabled CSP Reporting to improve privacy, reduce undesired network activity, and limit the data shared with website operators.
Enabled Proxy Bypass Protection to help prevent leaks for proxy users.
Fixed a bug that caused cookies/site data and permissions to always clear on exit, regardless of their check boxes/values set by users.
Disabled Firefox's new Unified Trust Panel redesign for the menu that appears when you select the lock icon on the top left of the URL bar by default, due to phishing concerns (as it unfortunately doesn't currently display the full URL if it's too long). - You can re-enable this if preferred by navigating to IronFox's Settings -> About IronFox -> Tap IronFox's logo at the top 5 times, then go back to Settings -> Secret Settings -> Unified Trust Panel.
Disabled the com.widevine.alpha key system (MediaDrm).
Disabled Mozilla's GeoIP/Region Service to prevent Firefox from monitoring the user's region/general location and reduce unwanted network activity.

Healthy Battery Charging
https://f-droid.org/packages/biz.binarysolutions.healthybatterycharging
Healthy Battery Charging alerts you when to plug or unplug your phone from the charger to improve battery life. The app itself is optimized for low battery consumption, running in the background and checking the battery level every 15 minutes. The exact timing of these checks depends on the Android operating system, which may schedule them alongside other tasks or delay them in sleep mode. As a result, the battery level may slightly exceed the high threshold while charging or drop slightly below the low threshold while discharging before you receive a notification.

Here’s the stories for the week:
Jack #Dorsey’s #Bitchat - The Real Story: The tech mogul Jack Dorsey released a censorship proof messaging app in late June - named Bitchat. It runs a #bluetooth #mesh network, end to end #e2e #encryption, and rolling IDs and is picking up traction. I share my thoughts on the app, and concerns I have - but that’s not even the real story. I think Jack has a bigger message than just the app.
World’s First #eSIM Hack: A security lab out of Poland just demonstrated a hack on one of the largest SIM providers for IoT devices. We’ll get techy in our understanding and ask the question, could this impact our phones?
#DigitalID, Coming Soon To #Mexico: The Mexican government has signed a new #Biometric #ID law, known as the CURP. How is this enforced and what does it mean for Mexican residents? Find out today.
Decentralized #Video Conferencing: Recently I’ve been relying more on video conferences instead of calling people, especially while traveling. Good thing I’ve got the #Jitsi app, I’ll show you my setup!

Cryptographic Analysis of Delta Chat | UseNiX
Yuanming Song, Lenka Mareková, and Kenneth G. Paterson, ETH Zurich - Nov 2024
We analyse the cryptographic protocols underlying Delta Chat, a decentralised messaging application which uses e-mail infrastructure for message delivery.
It provides end-to-end encryption by implementing the Autocrypt standard and the SecureJoin protocols, both making use of the OpenPGP standard. Delta Chat's adoption by categories of high-risk users such as journalists and activists, but also more generally users in regions affected by Internet censorship, makes it a target for powerful adversaries. Yet, the security of its protocols has not been studied to date. We describe five new attacks on Delta Chat in its own threat model, exploiting cross-protocol interactions between its implementation of SecureJoin and Autocrypt, as well as bugs in rPGP, its OpenPGP library. The findings have been disclosed to the Delta Chat team, who implemented fixes.

Snap Safe
The camera that doesn’t rat you out.
Snap Safe is an #Android #camera app that keeps every pixel—and every byte of data—exactly where it belongs: on YOUR device.
Key Features:
• Zero‑Leak Design – The manifest skips android.permission.INTERNET; nothing leaves your device.
• Fully Encrypted – Shots are written to encrypted, app‑private storage.
• Metadata Scrub‑A‑Dub – EXIF and other identifiers are wiped the instant you hit Share.
• PIN‑Locked Gallery – A separate PIN stands between curious thumbs and your photos.
• Secure Sharing – When you do share, we hand the file off via Android's native share sheet—no detours.
• Granular Location – Add coarse, fine, or zero location data—your call.
• 100% Open Source – Auditable code in plain sight.
• Poison Pill – Set a special PIN, that when entered, appears to work normally but actually deletes your existing
photos.
• Decoy Photos – Select innocuous decoy photos, these will be preserved when your Poison Pill is activated. That way
your Gallery is not suspiciously empty.
Why Snap Safe?
We capture photos locally, encrypt everything in private storage, let YOU decide if GPS tags are added (precision optional), and strip out tell‑tale metadata automatically.
We NEVER phone home or talk to servers, slurp analytics or usage stats, sprinkle ads or trackers in the code, or read files outside our sandbox.
Privacy Policy: We collect nothing.

#microg Release v0.3.7.250923
https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.3.7.250932
New Features and changes:
Work Profile
You can now sign into various work accounts that setup a work profile when using microG. As microG does not comply with all functionality imposed by organization administrators, you need to enable this feature manually in microG Settings > Work profile. Together with this comes functionality to view and install apps suggested by the organization administrator through the Play Store.
Play Feature Delivery
Apps can request installation of additional languages or features from split packages. You can activate this from microG Settings > Play Store
Face detection
This release ships with initial support for Google's Face Detection API. This functionality is still very incomplete, but works for some apps using it.

Power to the Projects - How do you power your electronics project? So many options, which is best?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtpqy966ejk
What is the best way to #power small #electronics projects?
Recently, I’ve been working on a lot of low voltage electrical circuits that typically use a microcontroller, sensors, lights and motors; but, what is the best way to power such projects - there are so many options, from batteries to USB!
In this video I give a brief overview of some of my favorite approaches, including some bargain options from AliExpress like USB Power Delivery, Buck converter and Boost converter modules. I’ll talk about the advantages and disadvantages of each approach and wrap up with an overview highlighting what approach I would use in a given application.
