@ruari @FediThing Definitely a bit of a vanity project when his name is in the description of the product. He definitely could have just given $$$ to Briar to hire some people to build out an iOS version and help maintain.

@matt @ruari @FediThing Completely agree. Though I've been waiting for store and forward and multi-hop message relay on @briar for a while. I wonder how well Bitchat solves that, and if it can be an inspiration for the #Briar developers.

Today - 25 July - is the deadline for user-to-user services subject to the UK's Online Safety Act to have "highly effective age assurance" in place for UK users, if the site's content requires it. (Not all sites/content require age assurance.)

Please be careful, especially if you are in the UK.

Think before handing over ID documents, and be especially mindful of mistyped URLs and other scams, trying to obtain your personal data for phishing or blackmail purposes.

@neil Im concerned how this will affect decentralised social media like #simplexhttps://simplex.chat #briarhttps://briarproject.org & #cwtchhttps://docs.cwtch.im these services r so decentralised there aren't even servers that facilitate users directly its more like a participatory network infrastructure, its undeniably user-to-user but what are they going to do charge every simplex relay operator? Or every node in a briar mesh? Or r group moderators liable instead?
