BitTorrent Bleep... Serverless chat client
    #20354125 - 07/31/14 02:46 AM (9 years, 9 months ago)

Hey Shroomery, the maker of uTorrent (BitTorrent) has unveiled designs of a new, serverless and encrypted chat client. It's in pre-alpha stages right now, and so far only compatible with Windows 7 and 8, but you can sign up to test their pre-alpha build.


I think this is a really cool idea, and reminds me of BitMessage. I think this is the way of the future with regards to secure communication between two parties. And you can take the security one step further, by encrypting your messages with PGP.

Looks like it could be cool. Until we get more details, including a spec, I'll be sticking with OTR. I think it's great that we're getting so many end-to-end tools nowadays. I just hope they gain enough traction to achieve critical mass.

I don't think it's meant to be fully usable at this stage, and for now I agree, it would be best to stick with OTR.

It is good that we're getting a lot of end-to-end tools, but at the same time you also have to be able to trust the developers.

Fuck BitTorrent... used to be good years ago, now just a crapware ad serving mega-company. I won't use their products, just like FB.

Bittorrent is great, they donbt have nearly as many ads as you say they do. 1 small ad on uTorrent is hardly a bad thing.
