Good to go with the process of porting Lokinet to iOS. I will try to interface Lokinet with the PureVPN's iOS VPN as mentioned above for setting up the iOS network extension VPN stuff needed for custom tunneling.
Hey there —
Text messages aren't really encrypted at all. Session messages are end-to-end encrypted using the Session protocol, they're a lot more secure than text messages!
It's true that the Australian government is anti-encryption, however we've spent a lot of time considering the regulation in Australia and whether it was a threat to Session. We don't think it is, and we've explained so in this article. Even though Session is made in Australia, its servers are actually distributed all across the world. We don't store your messages.
No, Session doesn't have perfect forward secrecy. PFS adds enormous complexity but is only relevant in an extremely narrow set of circumstances given the rest of Session's design. We further explained our decision not to use PFS here.
