Simplex-chat
https://simplex.chat
The first messaging platform operating without user identifiers of any kind.
Simplex is an encrypted, decentralized messaging service for instant messaging, voice, and video calls.
Unlike other messaging platforms, SimpleX has no identifiers assigned to the users. It does not rely on phone numbers, domain-based addresses (like email or XMPP), usernames, public keys or even random numbers to identify its users.
To deliver messages SimpleX uses pairwise anonymous addresses of unidirectional message queues, separate for received and sent messages, usually via different servers. Using SimpleX is like having a different “burner” email or phone for each contact, and no hassle to manage them.
This design protects the privacy of whom you are communicating with, hiding it from SimpleX platform servers and from any observers.
