Delta Chat is a messaging platform that works over email.
Setup is similar to a email client.
Messaging is decentralized and interoperable.
Supports end-to-end encryption via PGP.
PGP encryption keys are created automatically.
Default desktop client is based on Electron.
Electron is based on the Google Chromium web browser.

@hardtech @revengeday @Tutanota Just as a FYI, note that @Tutanota doesn't actually offer standard encrypted emails ( #OpenPGP, #GPG or #PGP which has been used for decades): https://tuta.com/encryption
You of course don't notice this if you only send emails between Tuta users, but if you try to send an encrypted email externally, well then the whole thing breaks down and you end up having to arrange a secure way of sending a password to the recipient: https://tuta.com/support#encrypted-emails-external
Uitleg: Voorgaande is de kop bij een artikel uit de Volkskrant van 26 maart 1994, nog te vinden op Delpher
In de jaren '90 sneuvelde het betreffende wetsvoorstel.
Ze hebben het al eens geprobeerd.
Nu, in 2025, proberen ze het opnieuw met het belabberde #chatcontrole voorstel van de EU.
Ze zullen het blijven proberen totdat mensen zich gelaten overgeven aan volledige onderwerping aan de autoriteiten, en het idee van een privésfeer onwerkelijk lijkt
Bijdrage aan het encryptiedebat in Nederland van 1994:
Overheid wil encryptie verbieden.
Maar kan justitie ook gecodeerde informatie onderscheiden van willekeurige onzinkarakters?
Gaan ze dan ook het versturen van onzin verbieden?

I saw something disturbing this morning.
One of my clients showed me an email. They use Gmail for their emails (on their own domain) and download them locally.
The email officially came from their company president, giving the purchasing department orders to immediately pay an invoice of around €20,000 to a new supplier in the UK. It included all the details and had the invoice attached as a PDF.
The worrying part is that the style and tone of the writing were exactly like their president's. However, the sender's address, while using the correct name, was a generic Gmail account. This immediately raised a red flag for the purchasing department, and they didn't fall for it. It was also easy for them to check because the president was in their office at that very moment.
Looking at the sender's address, it would have been simple for anyone to figure out what was happening, but many people don't.
The accuracy with which they (likely using an LLM) recreated the president's writing style is truly concerning.
@stefano I'm frustrated because a solution to this problem exists for decades - its name is #PGP. Also it has it's disadvantages, problems and is of course not bullet proof, I wonder why nobody was able to design a GUI that is usable for most users with a few hours of training. You only need to understand 5 % of PGP to be able to use it.
I think convenience and lack of interest (until it's too late) are the main obstacles.
🔐 Tuta Mail introduces key verification to strengthen end-to-end encryption and defend against MITM attacks 👥
Users can now verify contacts’ public keys via QR code or manual comparison.
If skipped, Tuta defaults to TOFU (Trust On First Use) for seamless encryption 🧩

A friend with an iPhone want to read and write PGP-encrypted emails: what's the cheapest and simplest approach I can suggest him?
I know nothing about Apple products, but I guess they have a default mail agent. Yet I can't find online how to configure PGP.

🎬 When Code Became a Weapon
It's easy to take strong encryption for granted, but that hasn't always been the case. This week we're diving into the "Crypto Wars," covering historical attempts by the US government to restrict strong encryption being exported internationally.

Let us know what you think of this style of video! We're trying something different, and this is the first in a planned series lined up 😄

![Onzin
[Volgt een paragraaf met opzettelijk willekeurig-schijnende tekens - 'k plaats het onderaan de tekst]
U begrijpt natuurlijk dat bovenstaande corruptie-tip voor mij te gevaarlijk is om ongecodeerd het dataverkeer in te sturen. Interessant is ook of iemand van justitie ooit kan bewijzen of dit een cryptocode of onzin is. Wordt het versturen van onzin soms ook strafbaar?
