Coming Soon: Free As In Freedom Skype Replacement; tox.chat

Sick of hearing about how the government is encroaching on your private data? I’m sure you’re beginning to learn about software and data that’s privatized, kept out of the government’s hands, and our first to recommend: tox.chat

“TOX Secure messaging will be available for everyone, coming soon. With the rise of widespread government monitoring programs, Tox is an easy to use application that allows you to connect with friends and loved ones without anyone else listening in.”

“Tox is built with the idea that you can keep up with friends and family without having your privacy violated. While other big-name services require you to pay to unlock features, Tox is free in both price, and in liberty. That is, you’re free to do whatever you wish with Tox.”
