One of the things I find disappointing about #AI is that local open-weights models are really hard to get to a usable state with reasonable performance.

I think it's interesting that there are good indications that clusters of small models can have similar performance as big cloud servers.

I think there's an interesting #PeerToPeer project opportunity here, where home LLM users let their models talk to and support each other.

WebRTC messenger architecture, sealed-sender push, encrypted signalling, looking for threat-model critique

A WebRTC messenger where message content never touches a server and the push layer can't see who's messaging whom

Android app, solo-built. Trying to find out where the architecture breaks before I scale it.

The core idea. Messages travel through direct WebRTC data channels (DTLS/SRTP) between two phones. No server stores, reads, or relays content. Group chats use a gossip protocol, sender fans out to a few reachable members who relay onward, members who come online late fetch missing messages from any peer who has them.

The supporting infrastructure, and what each piece can see.

* Signalling: needed to set up any WebRTC connection. I use a Cloudflare Worker (ephemeral, nothing persisted). The SDP/ICE payload is encrypted with the recipient's public key before it leaves the sender, and the two participants are addressed by opaque per-session hashes. The relay forwards ciphertext between unlinkable identifiers.

* Push wake-up: FCM, because Android. Sealed-sender design: the wake-up payload is encrypted to the recipient's public key, and the sender's identity is inside that envelope. The push layer sees who's receiving (it must, that's how push works), not who's sending. The FCM request is also forwarded via a Cloudflare Worker so Google doesn't see the sender's IP either.

* TURN relay: Cloudflare again, for restricted networks. Carries encrypted packets only, like any TURN.

The code is open source (GPLv3).

I wrote a detailed white paper explaining the full architecture on my landing page: https://www.mindtheclub.com

Mainly interested in where the design assumptions break. The sealed-sender piece, I'd like to know if the threat model I'm assuming there is too generous.

Glassworm botnet disrupted by takedown of resilient C2 infrastructure

In a major win for cybersecurity, researchers from CrowdStrike, Google, and The Shadowserver Foundation have successfully disrupted the Glassworm botnet by dismantling its complex command-and-control infrastructure. This takedown cuts off the lifelines of the threat actors, halting their campaigns that had been ongoing since…

**First entry into RetroShare: how to find peers**

In RetroShare you don’t “find people” in the usual sense. You don’t search — you agree. This is a fundamental mindset shift; without it, the first launch will always feel empty.

The first thing to accept: there is no global lobby in RetroShare. The emptiness after installation is not a bug, but the honest state of a network without links. Until you have trusted contacts, you literally have no network.

**The basic method — out-of-band contact.**
Peers are found outside RetroShare. These are friends, colleagues, members of thematic communities, people from Matrix, XMPP, IRC, Mastodon, forums — any place where key exchange can happen safely. RetroShare does not start with a “search” button, but with the phrase: “here is my key.”

**The second path — a control peer.**
The most reliable way for first entry is a second instance you control, or a pre-arranged experimental partner. This removes uncertainty: if the connection fails, the issue is technical, not social.

**The third path — thematic islands.**
There are small RetroShare communities built around ideas: privacy, P2P, darknet research, offline activism. They are not widely advertised because the network is not designed for random influx. Entry always starts with dialogue, not a click.

**What does not work.**
Publishing keys into the void. Waiting for someone to add you. Relying on auto-discovery. This is centralized-network thinking applied to a system where it has no meaning.

**How to know you’ve found a peer.**
The contact comes online. The connection stabilizes. Services start working: chat, forums, file exchange. At that point RetroShare stops being an abstraction and becomes an environment for communication.

**Bottom line:**
in RetroShare, people appear first —
and only then does the network emerge.

Making it up as we go - seems like a fine way to start after what we know up until today...
