Hello, I reat a lot about this lately and as far as I can tell instant-messaging is nothing short of electronic mail. Thus it is far from data-retention-free. The only loophole I could find was to not offer your service publicly. Having a foundation that you can become a member of (for free) and providing your own tor-network strictly for members, that exits via the normal tor-network inbstead of directly to the internet seems to be feasable. Maybe this can be combined with the existing VPNs of free wireless-comunities you have over there. I heard of one named "freifunk" that seems to be pretty huge. A.Y.
