Frankly, it sounds dangerous.  It will be completely open-source and completely anonymous.  Quote: "Anyone can see how it works. No one, including us, can track or identify you".  The app does not log IP addresses, session data, browsing activity, DNS queries or device identifiers that could be used to identify users.

 

Believe me when I say nothing is anonymous and untraceable. It's misleading and not true. Your ISP does or the coffee shop you sit at will, the DNS servers you connect to resolve freedom.gov will. The hops (ISPs using carrier-grade routers running SDN) between freedom.gov will! The firewall (Palo Alto/Fortinet) freedom.gov is behind will, the web servers (Microsoft) or proxy (F5) freedom.gov resides on will. DarkTrace to guess threat behavior and logged to Syslogs or SIEM. All it takes is a warrant to get your activity from ANYTHING.

 

Nobody should think adversaries will not be trying to find holes. There is no such thing as perfect programmers! Everything leaks or has bugs. Microsoft (servers) has roughly 30k bugs monthly, Palo Alto (firewalls) has about 1-30 bugs per 1000 lines of code. Cisco (switches & routers) will release patches 20-30 per release. F5 (load balancers and WAF) is no different. 

 

Finally, if people can get caught on the dark web using TOR and VPNs. If they can reverse fraudulent Bitcoin transactions from the dark web. Freedom.gov is cheez wiz. 

 

When I worked at the contractor and saw what was happening over SSL decryption and the methods, CN, IR, RU, NK, etc tried... like seriously. Someone will get caught.

haha  .    .    I'm inclined to agree with you. We delete stuff but it's not really deleted.

 

But I was quoting the State Departments spokesperson, so that's how they're selling it.  They obviously want the app to further weaken repressive regimes.  In fact, it may launch in sync with a military attack on Iran.

You know that feeling when everything seems calm, but suddenly you start having thoughts that something bad is going to happen? Is that anxiety?

I get that feeling a lot. It's your nervous system readying itself for something bad (fight or flight response).

Yes.

To put things simply : Depression is past oriented. Anxiety is future oriented.

Good thing Jehovah is present with us :)

To the billions of other people out there, it's just another day 😉

 

Chill and enjoy your weekend!

Are there any brothers from Mexico here? I would like information about our brothers. 

We are in contact with a brother and his 12 year old daughter. This was from sunday morning: 

---------------------------------

We had changed our plans to leave Jalisco and spend our last two months in Cozumel.

We would have been in a very awkward situation as we had to move residences anyway by the end of the month. We would have been in a pickle but Jehovah would have taken care of us. My daughter begged me to take her back to Cozumel and for some reason I said “ok let’s go” and originally planned to leave next week but for some reason I chose to leave a week earlier than planned. We missed it all by one day.

 

Everything was calm when we left but Jalisco State is a mess. Roadblocks by the cartel throughout the state. The US State Dept named these hot zones:
“The U.S. Embassy in Mexico City has instructed citizens in Jalisco State (including Puerto Vallarta, Chapala, and Guadalajara), Tamaulipas, Michoacán, Guerrero and Nuevo León to shelter in place until further notice.”
 
Chapala is where we were and it was totally calm when we left.
 
6 states are affected but it has affected a number of neighbouring states as well. This is much bigger than the war in Sinaloa in recent times as Guadalajara is the 2nd biggest city in Mexico with about 10 million people in the greater area. That’s just one city so you can imagine how many of our brothers are being affected. 
 
It goes to show you how quickly things can change. Just last Thursday I started a Bible study in Guadalajara with a Mexican American guy named Isaac and we were walking free and safely in Guadalajara. Then just a few days later the entire city is on lockdown. Things in this system can change in an instant of time and we should never be complacent.
-------------------------------------------
end of note.

Jehovah knows how to save people of godly devotion out of trial. 2peter2:9

 

We are at the last of the last days...

 

Lets pray for one another.
