Don't connect to inactive contacts Two changes: 1. Don't use remote transport properties for contacts that are in the process of being introduced - this avoids wasted connection attempts, as we can't create stream contexts for such contacts. 2. Don't activate contacts when receiving incoming streams - doing so was meant as a workaround for newly introduced contacts having inconsistent views of their introduction status if the introducer was offline. But it just shifted the inconsistency elsewhee, so this change removes the workaround. See merge request !153
Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging tools such as email, Twitter or Telegram, Briar doesn't rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users' devices. If the Internet's down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the Internet's up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.
