That could be very important considering that all your texts, emails, etc may be scanned in the EU and other states. However this Bluetooth solution isn’t going to work unless nearly everyone with a phone installs it.
tldr; Jack Dorsey has launched Bitchat, a decentralized messaging app that operates without internet, using a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) mesh network. The app enables peer-to-peer communication by relaying messages through nearby devices, bypassing traditional infrastructure like cell towers or servers. Bitchat offers end-to-end encryption, no persistent identifiers, and features like emergency data wipe. It has potential applications in disaster response, censorship resistance, and large events. The app’s beta version has seen rapid adoption, highlighting demand for privacy-focused, decentralized communication tools.

good for privacy.
Jack Dorsey grew a beard and bounced, now his invention is ruining the world
No thanks.
Will they eventually integrate a crypto wallet? We know Jack is a big supporter of Bitcoin (BTC) & the Lightning Network (LN). We also know that offline transaction relay is possible in crypto. This capability should be strengthened *before* becomes needed, before natural disasters & before governments or ISPs turn against the population. We’ve seen how they can limit internet access during the protests for Mahsa Amini in Iran.
Is this just a fork of Briar with different branding?
It’s had offline/Bluetooth messaging since it was released and has been in use by journalists and activists in oppressive regimes for over a decade… here’s a Wired article from 2014 explaining it:

The new internet that Richard, CEO of Pied Piper, promised he would deliver a decade ago!
So the guy who sold Twitter to elon wants me to download his new app…never in a million years
