We want Zerion independently audited. A real security audit is how a privacy app proves itself, because code should speak louder than marketing, and we’d rather be checked than believed.

Audits cost money, and we’re independent, so we’re asking for help. Every bit genuinely counts, no amount is too small, and it all goes toward getting Zerion properly reviewed.

Differential privacy is a cornerstone of modern-day #statistics.

It allows the generation of datasets that are statistically relevant for a researcher, but that leak as little as possible about the individuals in the dataset.

It works on several principles:

• Suppression, usually by removing outliers from the dataset that could lead to easily identifiable targets.
• Coarsening, e.g. replacing a city with a region or a country, or a date of birth with an age range.
• Sampling, usually through the removal of random records.
• Swapping, where some attributes from different records may be randomly swapped.
• Noise addition, by adding or subtracting random numbers in a given noise range to the actual values.

From 1990 to 2010, the US Census Bureau primarily relied on swapping for the decennial census. Then, they realized that this technique was actually very unsafe, and that it was pretty easy to reconstruct individual records using the published statistics.

They eventually adopted the full differential privacy framework in 2020.

But some people apparently got annoyed with that. And the main culprit was noise addition.

Adding a normal random distribution to the data made the numbers noisy, and some people who rely on the US Census expecting its numbers to be fully accurate were very annoyed.

Who are these people?

Well, one category is that of demographers and social scientists. Still, their mathematical models can be adapted to take into account that they’re dealing with noisy data - especially if the noise gain of distribution is published upfront.

But the most annoyed ones are thos who used the Census data to reconstruct actual records of individuals.

Yes, you read it well. There are people who use public datasets that are supposed to be coarse, and leverage probabilistic models to reconstruct information about individuals.

One big use case in America is, of course, #gerrymandering.

Those nonsense spiky borders can be much more accurate when the Census data allows you exactly to identify who lives where and that’s their ethnicity, so you can dilute the voting powers of some ethnic groups much more efficiently.

Apparently those groups have lobbied the Federal government so much that they got it to release an order that states the following:

Any use of noise infusion is inconsistent with the Department’s policies

This is a serious attempt of a political body to interfere through legislation into technical decisions that should be uniquely delegated to technical specialists - and the academic consensus is currently that of a full differential privacy framework.

Noise infusion is the most effective pillar in the differential privacy framework to prevent identification of individuals in public datasets.

Weakening it is likely to make everyone’s #privacy worse, and benefit only very few and their interests.

Zerion 2.0.2 is out. 🧅 Playstore Live - Fdroid underway!

No phone number — not even Signal can say that. No email, no server. Runs entirely over Tor; your data stays encrypted on your device.

End-to-end encrypted with hybrid post-quantum crypto. No telemetry, no logging — metadata-free by design.

2.0.2: more reliable broadcast channels, smoother onboarding, faster & more stable messaging.

Free & open source · GPL-3.0

Quick reminder that Zerion runs on exactly two things: Tor and donations. Every contribution goes directly into stability fixes, new releases and the iOS version we’re working on. No investors, no ads, no company behind us. Just us and the people who want this to exist.

Boosts help more than you’d think.

A source wants to reach you safely. With most messengers that starts with a problem: they need your phone number, you get theirs, and a server in the middle logs that you two talked.

Zerion skips all of that. You share a QR code or link, the connection runs device to device over Tor, and no record of the contact exists outside your two phones.

We wrote an honest comparison of Zerion against Signal, WhatsApp, Telegram, Threema, Wire, Session, Cwtch and Tox.

Honest meaning: Signal gets credit for pioneering post-quantum key exchange, Cwtch is genuinely close in spirit, and each app is the right call for some threat model.

Where Zerion stands alone: post-quantum encryption on every single message, and everything (including calls) over Tor.

"End-to-end encryption, in which data is encoded so that only users on either “end” of a conversation can decrypt their communications—and not the server that relays that information or any other interloper—has become the standard for modern privacy on the internet. But its very name suggests a kind of simple pipe with two openings. The metaphor, and often the encryption technology that has enabled that model, doesn't fit neatly onto the world of Slack, Discord, Google Docs, and the other multiuser, complex, collaborative software where people now live and work.

So one group of cryptographers has built what they describe as the foundation for a new generation of end-to-end encrypted apps, with a new metaphor: Instead of a mere pipe, they want to create “spaces” where users can hold group conversations, host information on a server, collectively make changes to it, invite in new collaborators or kick them out, all while maintaining the same strong encryption protections that prevent the server or network eavesdroppers from accessing their data.

That cryptographer team, including contributors from Harvard, Microsoft Research, and former developers of the end-to-end encrypted messenger Signal, today release a “preview” of Encrypted Spaces, an early version of a set of open-source code libraries, which is part of an architecture they've designed to allow anyone to easily build a rigorously end-to-end encrypted app that nonetheless enables all of the complex collaboration features that users demand from software today."
