This Introduction BSP Client uses its own group to communicate with existing contacts. It uses four types of messages to facilitate introductions: the introduction, the response, the ack and the abort. The protocol logic is encapsulated in two protocol engines, one for the introducer and one for the introducee. The introduction client keeps the local state for each engine, hands messages over to the engines and processes the result and state changes they return.
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.
