So, in Cryptocat, Government can know who sent the message, but not what the message was. I don't want government to even know I am using it. I know it is possible to use TOR and bypass it. Still, from what I inferred, Kontalk saves me from using an extra application like TOR na?
PS : From an Indian perspective, by default my internet speed is horrible, using TOR is unthinkable.. :D Regards, Balasankar C http://balasankarc.in "Freedom is never easily won, but once established, freedom lasts, spreads and chokes out tyranny." - Trent Lott 2014/1/23 Praveen A <[email protected]> > 2014/1/21, ബാലശങ്കര് സി <[email protected]>: > > But does Cryptotat provide anonymity??
