#Mastodon just got funding to add end to end encryption into their software.
So, some time next year, you’ll be able to send truly private messages to the vast majority of the #Fediverse
Im so excited about this.
Because it’s an open spec, this opens the doors for every Fediverse app to join the party.
Yesterday, this project was a proof of concept. Today, Mastodon has turned it into a stampede.

@manul70 Yup! Though I'm less concerned with nation states. Nation-states are considered an "Advanced Persistent Threat" - and if they want into your devices, then god help you. Relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/538/
But, this will be great for thwarting the next tier down: web scrapers, nosy admins, and corporate spies.
Anyone building #E2EE is a win for the Fediverse...
MASTODON building e2ee is a HUGE win for the Fediverse.

@RetroHax I'm not familiar with Peak, but yeah, there are a ton of encrypted messengers out there. I'm also on Signal and Matrix, each for different purposes.
The good news about this is that it brings this feature to the network we're already using. No change in behavior.. one day, your messages just become a little more private.

@benpate XD I meant it more so as a Word of Describing STuff and not the Video Game
Like using Peak as another Word for saying "Cool Feature" or so -

The primary spec for ActivityPub is here: https://swicg.github.io/activitypub-e2ee/mls
I have a project overview here: https://emissary.dev/e2ee <- this also includes links to the MLS protocol and other implementation resources.
My overview page WAS up to date, but I haven't posted much recently. But I *swear* I'm still making progress.
I'll show off a little of my work at #FediForum - and I'm sure we'll have larger conversations there about #E2EE in general.

@jens Yeah, the MLS protocol is pretty solid. It's built/supported by a number of big industry groups who know what they're doing.
And, I'm not writing the encryption myself. I'm building on top of the *fabulous* ts-mls library by Luka Jacobowitz. He's been super-supportive and even helped me troubleshoot a few things.
I'm pretty sure Bonfire is using OpenMLS, which is equally awesome.
When Mastodon starts working in 2027, a lot of the groundwork will have been laid already.
