    Hi all,

    project Nike is online and I would be happy if you can test
    the Android version, available under Releases, so that I know
    if the GUI looks good on small smartphones as well, as this
    is my first Android app.

    I think being able to interact with the clearnet system anonymously
    and post to a mainstream inbox is the state of the art for an anonymous email system.

    That said, I can't wait to try it out.

    Well, "mainstream" inbox sounds like a.a.m., but I like to suggest
    testing out https://atomicmail.io with Tor Browser.

    That said, I can't wait to try it out.

    Pleae try out on an Android smartphone, if you use one and with
    the latest Microcrypt release for Android.

    I want to run my own oc node now. Wow, has all the features I was
    looking to implement myself, including some newsgroup interaction.
    Seems like an awesome project. Still reading up on it. How does it peer
    with other nodes?

    based on what i've read about the history of usenet, and articles posted
    by legitimate nntp server administrators over the last four decades (i.e.
    since 1981), usenet server peering requires diligence and reliability on
    the part of server admins, before their nntp servers qualify for peering,
    which has ever been an insurmountable obstacle to the eelbash troll farm

    Hi,

    The Onion Courier Mixnet is the easiest and probably most secure Mixnet globally avialable, which requires no learning curve for an operator when running a mix node. Mix nodes, wether public or anonymous don't know about
    each other, like public keyrings and pingers, which Type II remailers use.

    Users simply build their chain and messages travel then along the path.

    The message pool is in RAM and messages there are padded and encrypted,
    in case someone would look at the pool. Secret key rotation for the pool
    is done every 24 hrs. This symmetric key is not the same as the secret
    key used for decrypting incomming messages.

    Public and anonymous mix nodes can interact with each other, so that
    users running their own mix node can then chain with public mix nodes.

    Nobody knows how big the fully decentralized Onion Courier Mixnet is,
    as everybody can run their very own Mixnet, with family and friends.

    Operators of mix nodes don't have to worry about running a middle or
    exit Remailer, because in the Onion Courier Mixnet clear net traffic
    is handled with additional endpoint servers.

    Installation of a mix node is very easy as it only needs compiling in
    the .onion URL of your Tor Hidden Service in the source code and once
    done setting-up a mix node takes less than thirty seconds.

    As you can see the idea behind the Onion Courier Mixnet is that people
    with no technical skills or knowledge can run their own Onion Courier
    Mixnet for family, friends and co-workers, on a Raspberry Pi, in case
    no VPS is wanted.

    Stefan

    It's not talking about usenet peering
