Use IRC like a fucking normal human being.

>Use IRC like a fucking normal human being.

IRC is a mossad botnet, dumbass

almost every IRC blocks Tor and socks proxies. and many IRC require you to make account so everything is recorded

>>1013576

>he doesn't know how to make his own IRC server

>he doesn't get invited to some

/tech/ everybody

>>1013576

In the context of alternatives to ICQ, this is... incredibly retarded.

>>1013576

>IRC is a mossad botnet

ICQ was literally made in Israel you stupid fuck.

>>1013576

IRC doesn't keep logs, unless you yourself use a client that records all of your conversations.

Also, why is it specifically a mossad botnet as opposed to a cia/kgb/mi6 botnet?

>>1013576

>almost every IRC blocks Tor

Have you never heard of freenode, one of the most popular IRC networks? They allow Tor.

>>1013607

Freenode blocks tor unless you deanonymize yourself with a special certificate tied to a mandatory freenode account which is tied to a botnet email provider such as jewgle, yahoo/nsa, and etc.

>>1013584

That's exactly what he implied you illiterate nigger.

>>1013622

Maybe you should fucking re-read what was posted before calling people illiterate.

>>1013591

Enjoy your new botnet

>>1013616

Not our fault you're too nigger tier retarded to anonymously do all that to remain anonymous. What, you thought being anonymous didn't take work? Lazy nigger go back to cuckchan /g/!

>>1013623

>He doesn't know Mossad are Israeli.

You're actually dumber than a nigger, why are you here?

>>1013630

Look, I know your pea-sized brain doesn't know there's a difference between "IRC" and "ICQ", but I can assure you that there is.

>>1013563

It's too basic. Might as well just send plain text files to each other.

>not just using telepathy

There are no other options, ey?

XMPP + OTR is the best option for secure convos. Discord log everything is

>>1013664

Why not XMPP + OMEMO?

>>1013603

servers keep logs of your messages dumbass

just like everything else that doesn't normally do e2e encryption

but the most stupid thing about IRC is that even client to server encryption is optional and assumed off by default

>>1013548 (OP)

IRC. The same damn thing I've been using for the past 15 years.

>>1013856

Also TOR is a fucking honeypot. Who still uses this shit after the FBI/CIA niggers invaded?

>>1013858

I don't think you understand how Tor works. No single actor can invade it.

>>1013576

>using large centrallized irc servers

Might as well just use discord you fucking nigger

>>1013548 (OP)

isn't ICQ Russian malwares, nao, anyways?

>>1013851

Telegram is made by the Russian government.

There's no reason to use anything other than irc or email now. Instant messaging applications were great when you knew people in real life who spent all their time pissing around on the internet, but after several years people get jobs and have shit to do and instant messaging becomes useless. I don't think anyone I used to chat with still uses it, it became just a novelty and now text messaging on phones has taken that over.

At least with irc you can find some channels of relevant discussion that move faster than shitty forums that require email verification and so many posts/threads created before feature X is available and take months for someone to respond to a thread/post before promptly being locked/deleted by an admin because it's a duplicate of some dead thread from the 90's. Then you've got email for actually important shit, everything else is a shit meme.

>>1013583

>>1013584

where did he said that ICQ is not mossad botnet?

>moving from one botnet to another

smart action

>> No.1013603

>IRC doesn't keep logs

<he actually believes that

<he doesn't know anyone can enter IRC and record

>Also, why is it specifically a mossad botnet as opposed to a cia/kgb/mi6 botnet?

cia and mi6 are owned by mossad. and US is owned by Israel. so anything that belongs to cia/mi6, albo belongs to mossad

>>1013607

>Have you never heard of freenode, one of the most popular IRC networks? They allow Tor.

what he said >>.1013616

and even if you managed to create one account with Tor+socks, then it won't be anonymous if you use it but pseudonynomous, because everything what you write will be tied to one account. you won't be able to use different identity/account every time you enter

>>1013664

>XMPP + OTR is the best option for secure convos.

won't XMPP reveal when you are online and when not? since you are connected to some master server

or can you just connect to it for 5 minutes a day, read all messages, reply, close it?

>>1013858

>Also TOR is a fucking honeypot. Who still uses this shit after the FBI/CIA niggers invaded?

it may be a honeypot, but if it didn't work I would be in jail with 10 year sentence

>>1013864

>I don't think you understand how Tor works. No single actor can invade it.

there are possible attacks on Tor users. but they can defend from them too with some measures

Tor is pretty strong

>>1013994

>There's no reason to use anything other than irc or email now.

email is shit. even if you use PGP, metadata and all your contact list will be accessible to them. you would need to have 20 email accounts for each purpose and circle of friends. and you would need to check those 20 accounts for new messages

>At least with irc you can find some channels of relevant discussion that move faster than shitty forums that require email verification

you can use imageboards for that

>>1013994

I hate typing on phones though. IRC is okay but annoying now because they want you to register nick. In the 90's it was less trouble and more fun. Someone stole your nick? Oh well, just add some 1337 characters around it something. Also those channel splits and takeovers, good times!

I used talk/ytalk a lot too (or even just write) on shell accounts. That was closer to BBS style chat, where you could watch the other user(s) type in real time, and correct their mistakes, etc. Finger was pretty cool too.

I don't like any of the web or GUI shit. Even imageboard is painful, compared to Usenet.

>>1013851

>its a pretty solid platform to share files and chat on,

No it isn't, fuck off.

>you can also use specific chats to terminate all information in a set time

>>>/reddit/

>>1013576

>thing that anyone can host is botnet

>common client-side feature of logging is botnet DRM must obviously be better

>actual lie about IRC mandating accounts

It doesn't and even networks that do don't need to request email validation during registration

OP is a faggot once more

>>1013667

IRC is a protocol designed to let you to have real-time conversations with multiple strangers. If you're not already assuming it's insecure for that setting alone then you are kinda dumb.

>>1018733

It isn't required that they be strangers.

I reccomend Threema as it is End to end encrypted and can also be used anonymously.

>>1019362

How is it anonymous when you have to buy it in the app store / play store?

>>1019385

You don't have to get it from the app store and can buy it with bitcoin directly from them.

>Try to get into new hobby

>Every person who is in said hobby only uses discord for communication

>Most information for said hobby can only be found on discord

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA the worst is when its something where the users should give a shit like a piracy community.

>>1013667

>servers keep logs of your messages dumbass

Only if you configure the server to do so, dumbass

>users keep logs of your messages, dumbass

Try avoiding that one with any sort of messaging app

Wish I'd sold my ICQ number back when you could get a cool hundred or so bucks on eBay for decent ones.

>>1019422

This is a warning that the hobby itself is cursed. Run.

>>1013858

>Also TOR is a fucking honeypot.

Such a honeypot the three letters and the army use it, sure.

>>1019558

Why would a three letter be wary of their own honeypot

>>1013858

>Who still uses this shit after the FBI/CIA niggers invaded?

8ch? I do. Don't you have terrorists to catch?

>Who still uses this shit after the FBI/CIA niggers invaded?

You're using 8chan, though.

Anything with an user input box is not only monitored and compromised, but infiltrated and actively manipulated by the USA, Canada, Australia, UK and Germany, at least.

Social media with more undercovers than real people includes: Youtube streams, Twitch streams, 4chan, Reddit, Hacker News, big IRC servers and channels, and more...

>>1019614

>Why would a three letter be wary of their own honeypot

Because honeypot implies vulnerabilities, and vulnerabilities imply that another country could know about them too.

The army especially would not be ok with their own idea for high security comms being backdoored, as that would make it a colossal liability.

>inb4 "they have another layer of security"

They had that before coming up with onion routing, they still found out that hiding message paths was needed.

> Im new on /tech/

gno away

>social media

That's the problem

>chat/filetrade

email, torrents, irc, infinitychan (I have 0 social contacts so I don't know)

All these retards talking about IRC as if it was some specific entity.

Sure there are shit networks like Freenode that blocks Tor and logs everything but for every such network there is at least dozen better networks.

Most networks allow Tor and if you're so concerned about logging you could just run your own network or use one run by a friend of yours.

The best part about IRC is that no single entity is in control of it.

Only a retard would use ICQ, Telegram or Discord.

>>1019543

>>1013851

German criminal police got access to some (((100% secure End-to-End encrypted))) group chat logs a year or two ago, Telegram is a scam

>>1019433

its really hard on something like discord. theres no official logging thing on it so you would have to make your own logger for it

>>1019683

>FBI/CIA, MOS, RUS

You'll never find anything else. I ran a cheap board 2003-2008, once you get popular you're done. One, if not multiple, groups will bombard your board with illegal shit and the spooks come out and tell you you can avoid responsibility if you give them access to police. Entrapment or shakedown, but I presume this is what got Dredd Pirate locked up, trying to hide and avoid them from infiltrating.

>>1022203

If you're gonna do irc, use i2p because it has it built in. Less likely to make a mistake that way.

It's the only decent IM app these days.
