Hello list,
Has anyone else thought about applying mpOTR to microblogging services
like StatusNet or Twitter?
Some people like to have two accounts on Twitter, for example: one
public, one "private". If one could piggyback on existing social media
using mpOTR (and maybe ideas from TextSecure), there could be actual
privacy in those services. Message 'access control' (e.g. "A,B,C can
read this message but not D") could be emulated by thinking of
different, perhaps overlapping, social circles as participants in
ongoing "conversations"...
I'm not familiar with mpOTR, but given the demand for privacy in
social media (Diaspora), it might be a promising idea. What does
everyone think, would it be possible?
