With 2024 now behind us, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the growth and achievements we accomplished as a community last year, and celebrate the incredible support we received from the FOSS community throughout the journey. This year has been a milestone for us, with significant strides in decentralizing app distribution, expanding the F-Droid ecosystem, and solidifying our infrastructure. All of these advancements were made possible thanks to donations, grants, our volunteers and re...| Guardian Project
At first, the idea of encrypting more of the metadata found inside the initial packet (the “ClientHello”) of a TLS connection may seem simple and obvious, but there are of course reasons that this wasn’t done right from the start. In this post I will describe the flow of a connection using Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) to protect the metadata fields, and present a working code example using a fork of CPython built with DEfO project’s OpenSSL fork to connect to ECH-enabled HTTPS servers.| Guardian Project
Guardian Project has been running its own fdroid-compatible app repository since 2012. Up until now, we worked to ensure that our repository had the same standards of free software as the official F-Droid repository. Therefore, the Guardian Project repository was included in the official F-Droid client app by default. A lot has changed since then, for the better. F-Droid has long since stopped shipping pre-built binaries from any provider. Back in the day, F-Droid shipped some binaries, like ...| Guardian Project

For software projects with recurring bugs, efficiency or security issues there’s a joke making the rounds in the software industry: “Let’s re-write it in Rust!” It’s a fairly new low-level programming language with the declared goal to help developers avoid entire classes of bugs, security issues and other pitfalls. Re-writing software is very time consuming, so it rarely happens, especially when just one more fix will keep a project up and running.| Guardian Project
This position paper tries to outline a framework for defining trackers in smart phones and lists mechanisms for identifying them. It hopes to serve as the foundation for the work done in the Tracking-the-Trackers project. In section 1 we start with an abstract analysis of levels of unwanted behaviour in the context of tracking. Next, in section 2, we focus on an attacker’s perspective, on anonymity and pseudonymity. This foundation allows us to define terms which are needed throughout the p...| Guardian Project
VPNs have become quite popular in recent years for a number of reasons, and more and more they are being touted as a privacy tool. The question is whether using a VPN does improve privacy. It is clear that VPNs are quite useful for getting access to things on the internet when direct connections are blocked. VPN providers include a number of tactics in both their client apps and server infrastructure to ensure that their users are able to make a connection.| Guardian Project
