Always Secure Messaging ("AweSoMe") is a collaborative effort to build interoperable, open-source, secure messaging applications, that work from mobile to mobile, as well as mobile to web. In particular, the goal is to create an extremely usable and high quality experience, that simultaneously supports one-to-one and one-to-many (group) end-to-end secure messaging communications.
The basic principles below guide our efforts:
- We believe in Security by Default, Privacy by Design
- We believe in protocols, not products.
- We believe in partnerships, not proprietary fiefdoms.
- We believe in building a community of collaborators, not a cacophony of criticism and unnecessary competition.
- We believe in practical solutions to perilous problems.
