Wickr is a secure messaging app https://wickr.com/security#encryption
First to get Wickr to work on the whonix-ws i had to install the following packages; libavutil52_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_amd64.deb libicu52_52.1-8ubuntu0.2_amd64.deb libsqlcipher0_3.2.0-1.1~bpo80+1_amd64.deb libx264-142_0.142.2389+git956c8d8-2_amd64.deb libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 gtk2-engines-pixbuf wickr-me_2.6.0_amd64.deb (of course) The app seems to be working ok (havent tested all functionality) I had a couple of questions tho: 1. Could any of these packages interfere with the anonymity of the whonix-ws? 2. Should i even run Wickr from a Whonix-ws? Or just use a deb template & route it through a Whonix-gw? 3.1 wicker has the option to put in proxy details. IP & port. Im not clear if its socks5 of not. should i put some information in here so Wickr creates its own unique TOR route? which IP should i use 127.0.0.1 or....? 3.2 Ive heard if an app isn't using a socks5 proxy setting it will still use Whonix-gw, but not create its own unique route. I believe this opens up the risk of cross analysis of network activity on? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
