Relay operator and implementation dev here… operators could moderate if they wanted, via IP blocklists or anything else such as specific words/phrases filters, etc depending upon which implementation they use. There are some relay implementations that are quite customizable and since they’re FOSS, the code could be forked altered for anything else custom that makes the United Kuckdom happy.

glowie@infosec.pubto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the first ever internet café had to buy its domain name from the AmishEnglish21·2 months agoI lived near Lancaster, where the Amish predominantly live. Can confirm it was more likely to have been as you suggested. Once bought a German Shepherd from some Amish and they had no technology that I could see. Whereas, the Mennonite will drive cars, have phones, etc.
Agreed, hopefully i2p adoption ramps up.
No update in over a year. Is the project still maintained?
Interesting, when I signed up I didn’t need a phone number, just email. Lmk if you’d like an invite code (if that’s even necessary anymore?)
Beeper is just a reskinned Element messenger. The devs behind it are also the ones who built all the bridges everyone uses.
Beeper users who message other Matrix/Beeper users it should be fully e2ee as it’d be no different from using Element or another Matrix client.
But, it would be nice to get more clarification at a high-level as to how they handle the message relaying.

Replace the native ad-riddled platform with another?
glowie@infosec.pubto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Brave VS DuckDuckGo : Most Privacy Focused Search Ingine61·2 years agoI must give props to Brave Search for its AI summarizer, which suprisingly does a pretty good job at using high quality sources from its index to give you a brief synopsis of the query.

glowie@infosec.pubto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Should I convince my mother to switch to ProtonMail?41·2 years agoFor sure, email is an insecure means of communication. But, that wasn’t the request of the OP. They’re not asking for an e2ee messenger recommendation, but thoughts on PM. And I provided an honest suggestion that they simply cannot be trusted, regardless of whether or not they complied because “it’s the law”.
glowie@infosec.pubto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Should I convince my mother to switch to ProtonMail?41·2 years agoTutanota. Or any other e2ee email provider that still has a good reputation of not spying on behalf of a gov request.
glowie@infosec.pubto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Should I convince my mother to switch to ProtonMail?315·2 years agoConsidering PM is basically a honeypot at this point (can’t trust they’re not monitoring with a gag order preventing warrant canary), I wouldn’t recommend them even to my enemies.
glowie@infosec.pubto Privacy@lemmy.ml•PSA: Do not enable URL thumbnail generation in Element1·2 years agoWhy not just host your own lemmy instance on a cheap vps and be satisfied you’re the only admin heh
For sure, I understand that. It will ultimately come down to the individual. Are they willing to wait it out and see if they even get contacted by the UK gov in some way. If you’re running yours in a VPS you could set up geo-blocking in a way that’s standard for any webserver, outside anything to do with Nostr. That’d be the sysadmin and simplest way of dealing with it at least. Personally, I’m not changing anything for the UK.
