RootlessJamesDSP VS session-android

If you want to mess with media volume and settings, then maybe try this out, it's a DSP plugin that uses screen cast and Shizuku to change the media stream. You can find it here

RootlessJamesDSP (version 1.5.3): System-wide JamesDSP implementation for non-rooted devices

RootlessJamesDSP supports per device profiles.

I've used it. I preferred Wavelet for the AutoEQ and Poweramp Equalizer for the preamp features. However RootlessJamesDSP offers more than both combined, it has features from Viper4Android (Viper-DDC, Convolver). Patching for Spotify is no inconvenience I rarely update it and the only other apps listed it doesn't support is Chrome and SoundCloud. But I use Mull for browsing and if I wanted to listen to SoundCloud I'd use NewPipe. 😛

Other alternatives include Session (free) and Threema (paid - 5€).

Test it by downloading session at getsession.org and DM the bot by starting a new message and sending it to “Simple” (without quotes)

Figured there should be moves to set one up if not - https://getsession.org/

* marketing "Perfect Forward Secrecy" AKA "Forward Secrecy"[0].

I favor Session Private Messenger[1] because it is decentralized and allows third party clients, but Signal enthusiasts warn me that the Session client may, hypothetically, at some future date, integrate a cryptocurrency, as the Signal client already does[2].

If you have a mobile phone number, the domestic intelligence agency knows exactly where you are at all times and any LEO (without a warrant) can also find you. In addition, there have been numerous CCC presentations showing how insecure the global (excluding US) and (separately) US carriers are guilty of promiscuous metadata trafficking ($$) and insecure SS7 setups. As a consequence, for low $, you can go to any one of several shady websites and find the last location of almost any phone number (person unique ID) globally. There are additional varying exploitable vulnerabilities depending on the exact combination of {handset x carrier x country} to impersonate them, tap their line, reveal their exact location, and redirect their phone number through a third-party handset or even a PBX. These are more expensive and some capabilities are forbidden for all but a few selective intelligence uses.

Session (Signal fork) doesn't use phone numbers. It's pretty well-designed overall and uses an onion routing approach. It's already a superset of Signal except it doesn't use phone numbers. https://getsession.org

PS: Using regular TOR on home broadband or cloud servers is relatively risky and inefficient. Sybil attacks on it are common. And to network operators and security agencies it gives an easy "flow tag" of your uplink and exit node data traffic as automatically suspicious.
