Gabriel speaks with Evgeny, the founder of Simplex Chat. Simplex is a recent and still-developing private messaging app with a slant toward privacy over convenience. Evgeny gives his critical thoughts on other private messengers, explains how privacy software can fund itself, exposes the myth of disappearing messages, and gets into some of the finer details of how Simplex Chat has made different choices from its competitors. In particular Simplex gets rid of accounts altogether, allowing you to create as many βprofilesβ as you want that are localized to your device. The result is, as Evgeny says, Simplex knows nothing about its users.

Gabriel Custodiet speaks with Urban Hacker about the infamous XZ backdoor incident by which a key piece of software in the Linux kernel was nearly hijacked. The attacker spent four years slowly ingratiating himself into the small community, which had been selected precisely because it consisted of a single burned-out developer. Follow us as we unravel this bizarre and disturbing story of premeditated digital attack and what it means for free and open-source software and our own cybersecurity.

Gabriel Custodiet talks to Max Tannahill about Bitcoin privacy, Monero, and phone privacy. Max is a dedicated and well respected experimenter with wallets and the practical tools that the limousine crypto class would never sully themselves with. As such, Maxβs views on these topicsβsuch as Monero as the best layer 2 for Bitcoin and the damage of Taproot and Covenantsβcome from the thoughtful mind of a rare actual user of these digital technologies.
