  1. Decentralized browser-based P2P E2EE messaging.

    The key detail that sets this apart from other messaging apps is the browser-based client-side cryptography philosophy.

    No need to install anything. Your ID is crypto-random and so the app doesnt need to rely on any central registration system like phone numbers. Your ID is unguessable and to connect to someone, you have to explicitly share it.

    WebRTC has other nuances like being to route through a shared network for secure/faster transfer.

    I hope this project has reached a level i can share the following details. I've made a genuine effort towards documentation and transparancy. I dont think it'll ever be enough and so im still concerned it isnt ready to share. While im using AI throughout. This is not a vibecoded project. There is attention throughout for unit tests and formal-verification. With your feedback, id like to make improvements for clarity throughout.

    This version of the app demonstrates a fairly unique approach using a browser-based, local-only and webrtc approach. I know it's impossible for any system to be the "world's most secure", but that isnt a reason to not try. By rigorously implementing an exhaustive list of security features and practices, the aim is to get as close as possible.

    I know ive tried to compress a lot of my journey into one post. The project above is going to be tricky to understand. Feel free to reach out for clarity on any of the details.

  2. Simple privacy tip I learned today. Clearing your browser’s “site permissions” removes trackers you forgot you approved months ago.

  3. A lot of people say “I have nothing to hide,” but privacy isn’t just about hiding anything.

    When we back up photos, messages, or contacts, we’re also holding data about the people we care about. Their privacy is connected to ours.

    Privacy isn’t a solo act but a community effort.

  4. We lock our homes and don’t give our keys to strangers. Why do we give our data to someone else to control? I’m learning that protecting data is the digital version of locking your door and securing the keys. What simple steps do you take for digital peace of mind?

  5. Every other transcription app is in the storage business. We're in the forgetting business. Your iPhone remembers so the internet doesn't have to. apple.co/4nDlJvR #PrivacyTech #NoCloud #iPhone #AITranscription #DataSecurity #Meetings #LocalStorage #Tech

  6. I believe digital privacy should feel simple, not overwhelming. Most backups push your data to a cloud you don’t control and that never felt right to me.

    So I’m building 121Drop, a local backup tool with no accounts and no tracking.

    🔒 Privacy by default
    💾 External drive support
    🚀 One-tap backups
