12 One single little touch it lacks is end-to-end encryption. |
|
|
|
13 Without it it is perfect for public communities such as software projects discussions and support chat, live event chats... |
|
|
|
14 but private 1-to-1 communication could suddenly become a good candidate for end-to-end encryption. |

21 brings in a simple piece of code using libNaClk, |
|
|
|
22 the crypto library from Dan Bernstein, |
|
|
|
23 author of ED25519 (in its repackaged libsodium form). |
|
|
|
24 This is state-of-the-art, well-proven and fast cryptography for end-to-end communication. |

27 With this plug-in dropped in the plugin folder, |
|
|
|
28 all private communication start by a simple key exchange over normal IRC, |
|
|
|
29 and the conversation upgrades to nacl-encrypted messages over regular IRC. |
