BitTorrent Unveils Bleep: A Decentralised & Encrypted Chat Client For Windows
The people behind the massively successful and controversial BitTorrent technology have unveiled Bleep, a new chat client that promises secure and snooping free communication. BitTorrent have implemented their knowledge of decentralised infrastructure to build Bleep. Instead of having a centralised server to handle chats and client metadata, Bleep uses the same BitTorrent technology to build a fully distributed SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) server that serves as an engine for Bleep. Ever since the NSA-Snowden saga many chat clients have included the option of encrypted communication. While the encryption is sufficient to safeguard the messages, the clientâs metadata has to remain in the companyâs servers making it vulnerable to government snooping and hacking. Bleep does not maintain a central repository of chat log and contact information. People on Bleep can find each other through other nodes in the network. Bleep employs secure encryption protocols such as curve25519, ed25519, salsa20, poly1305, and others for end to end encryption.
On Bleep you can communicate with others in text and voice. Since the makers of the chat client believe in the idea of open internet, they have made the Bleep engine to serve as the back-end to any chat and voice application. The company has launched Bleep in its pre-alpha form and is asking users to register their e-mail ids on the website and wait for the invite. Once your request is processed they shall be mailing you back with the download link for the client. The company is targeting the application towards journalists, diplomatic corps, business and individuals who want to safeguard their messages from illegal snooping. The client is currently available for Windows desktops only. The testers have the option of inviting their friends to use the application. BitTorrent warns that since it is an early build users can expect some bugs in the system which will be rectified in future builds.
