    SimpleX

    SimpleX

    The first messaging platform operating without user identifiers

    Other apps have user IDs: Signal, Matrix, Session, Briar, Jami, Cwtch, etc. SimpleX does not, not even random numbers. This radically improves your privacy. The video shows how you connect to your friend via their 1-time QR-code, in person or via a video link. You can also connect by sharing an invitation link. Temporary anonymous pairwise identifiers SimpleX uses temporary anonymous pairwise addresses and credentials for each user contact or group member. It allows to deliver messages without user profile identifiers, providing better meta-data privacy than alternatives. Many communication platforms are vulnerable to MITM attacks by servers or network providers. To prevent it SimpleX apps pass one-time keys out-of-band when you share an address as a link or a QR code. Double-ratchet protocol. OTR messaging with perfect forward secrecy and break-in recovery. NaCL cryptobox in each queue to prevent traffic correlation between message queues if TLS is compromised.

    IRremote Arduino Library

    IRremote Arduino Library

    Infrared remote library for Arduino, send and receive infrared signals

    This library enables you to send and receive using infra-red signals on an Arduino. You can use any pin for sending now like you are used to receiving. Simultaneous sending and receiving. See the SendAndReceive example. No more need to use 32-bit hex values in your code. Instead, a (8 bit) command value is provided for decoding (as well as a 16-bit address and a protocol number). Protocol values comply to protocol standards, i.e. NEC, Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, and JVC decode and send LSB first. Supports more protocols, since adding a protocol is quite easy now. Better documentation and more examples. Compatible with tone() library, see ReceiveDemo. Supports more platforms, since the new structure allows to easily add a new platform. Feedback LED also for sending. Ability to generate a non-PWM signal to just simulate an active low receiver signal for direct connection to existent receiving devices without using IR.
