And the final option as part of clean up: abandon most sources of content.

This virus is a memetic one. You’re already infected. Read below and follow the advice.

Probably the same as all BLE apps. Because it’s not based on the app, but the device (particularly the antenna) and environment. Some thoughts to help you frame this: More obstructions / “stuff” between you and another device, the more interference and multipathing. If you’re out in a field or on a road and have line of sight, you can go a decent way. If you’re moving, it will be variable. Every antenna emits a radiation pattern. For a simple dipole, imagine a donut. The other device is also a donut. When the two donuts intersect, they can talk to each other. Transmit power affects how “loud” they can talk while the donut pattern affects how much they can “hear”. Transmit power is how you can maybe overcome other devices and environmental interferences (like a lamp post, WiFi, power lines). As you can imagine, your phone doesn’t have pointy antennas coming out of it. If you were to view the BLE antenna, it’d be smaller than a dime in size (with a particular and clever radiation pattern). Your phones battery is a clear indicator that you aren’t transmitting very loudly, but that’s the point of BLE.

The latter I’m aware of. And there’s never been an appropriate response to it, either. But aside from seedsigner, there’s not a lot of options short of a separate air-gapped machine.

No worries! Not an attack, I see it as a service to myself and others out of charity - you owe nothing!

No, I meant the manufacturer. It’s only fair, and a benefit to the community at large. If it’s ignored, it’s a clear signal - no?

I’d love to see a write up of your findings! I know you mentioned looking into a bunch of wallets a while ago. For the issues you’ve found, do you have any recommendations for remediation?

Thanks. I needed to hear this. I know what to do now.

This needs to be a marketing campaign. Money needs to be raised to get it playing on the common ad loads.

Which do you care more about - shilling your product or the freedom tech? If you care more about the freedom tech, I ask that you do a deep dive into LoRa and call out the prominent projects in the space.

I like coldkite. But this is bullshit. For your attention.

Concept has been around for a looong while. Surprised at the amount of interest this is getting. A lot of the protestors in Hong Kong used it back in the day. People need to become aware of meshtastic. Even better, because you aren’t limited by BLE.

Hmmm. Interesting, so soon after him stepping down. Methinks some young evil pup pushed him out and is wrestling control by gathering consensus. I’d say 🍿time, but we know nothing will happen. Let’s just hope and pray this leads to a breakdown of the WEF.
