Ricochet 1.1.0 - TOR Secure Peer-To-Peer Client
Ricochet 1.1.0 - TOR Secure Peer-To-Peer Client
Ricochet is an experiment with a different kind of instant messaging that *doesn't trust anyone* with your identity, your contact list, or your communications.
-> You can chat without exposing your identity (or IP address) to anyone,
-> Nobody can discover who your contacts are or when you talk (metadata-free!),
-> There are no servers or operators to compromise that could access your information,
-> It's cross-platform and easy for non-technical users.
What's New?
The Ricochet version 1.1.0 includes a protocol redesign and file-transfer capabilities!.

How does it work?
Ricochet is a peer-to-peer instant messaging system built on Tor hidden services.
Your login is your hidden service address, and contacts connect to you (not an intermediate server) through Tor.
The "rendez-vous" system makes it extremely hard for anyone to learn your identity from your address.
Throught it's an *Experimental Service* we suggest you to use it and in meanwhile test for possible bugs in-order to improve the service. Bugs can be reported to: ricochet:rs7ce36jsj24ogfw or john.brooks@dereferenced.net .
