      Unfortunately, I don’t think you’re going to get your wish as its fully open source and the servers can be self-hosted quite easily. Unlike Telegram, where only the actual end client was open source and the server side was closed source. In SimpleX everything is open source.

      Hackliberty is one of the most active SimpleX groups

      I’d urge you not to disregard the tech because media hit pieces

          … I understand the concept of a honeypot

          If you think that’s what’s going on here you don’t understand simplex at all

    Honestly the more privacy-preserving app is, the more radically good guys you’ll meet, and at same extent the more radically bad
