    If the law is implemented, I would selfhost my own chat server. I don’t see this as Signal fault.

    But everybody can`t selfhost. That is a problem I am struggling with.

    I am now sure what I would do about email, I assume it is affected as well?

      If the law is implemented I will self host my own signal proxy and distribute patched apps to those in need

        I looked into signal servers some years ago and found nothing, are you meaning like tunnel things to another country?

            That’s actually a smart idea!

            Not more legal or something (if that stupid laws becomes reality) I guess but who cares ☺️.
