Berty is an open source, secure, private, censorship resilient messaging protocol. Berty is designed to work with NO internet connection. Thanks to Bluetooth LE and mDNS, messages can be securely and privately relayed, peer to peer to create an adhoc network. Of course old fashioned networks still work, and if you’re connected to a “hostile” network that’s being surveilled, the Berty protocol can still operate safely and securely thanks to e2e encryption. Super nice!
