Ready to own your conversations and ditch data-mining messengers? In this Freedom Tech Weekend episode we take a hands-on tour of the Signal app—the open-source, end-to-end-encrypted messenger trusted by activists, journalists, and privacy pros worldwide.
Fresh from the Oslo Freedom Forum, host Marks shares real-world lessons from AI workshops for human-rights defenders, then dives into:

Why Signal’s X3DH key exchange, Perfect Forward Secrecy and metadata minimization protect you better than SMS, WhatsApp or Telegram
A quick walkthrough of Signal’s GitHub, community forum and donation-funded model
How to link your Phone and Desktop apps and the security behind the exchange
An early look at Signal-Llama, a brand-new bridge that lets you chat with a local Ollama AI bot—perfect for truly private AI assistance
A weekend challenge: migrate just one contact to Signal and feel the difference
