Everything about privacy (the confidentiality pillar of security) -- but not restricted to infosec. Offline privacy is also relevant here.

The world needs secure communication more than ever, as a bulwark against the surveillance, authoritarianism, and oppression increasingly enabled by Big Tech. Matrix seeks to meet that need, as an open source, decentralised, encrypted comms protocol.

But Trust & Safety is more difficult in a decentralised environment. How are we building a safer Matrix?

What are your thoughts on Session, and Signal as well?

But fully agree!!

actually, the world needs less communications. Too many normies got online and we're dealing with the consequences of idiots having access to data and thinking it's information.

People need to be taught, so they don't become normies. Maybe even reverse some normies as well

@[email protected] good luck with all of this stuff. I would love to have some kind of simple control panel interface for my homeserver, that allows me to kick/ban/delete/etc quickly with a click. Even better if this was baked in to Synapse.

Anything that makes community server and room moderation easier than it currently is.
