Does anyone know if this has been (or could be) implemented at a software (firmware?) level for meshtastic devices?
minus-squaremesa@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·edit-22 months agoNope. We are broadcasting below 1 watt. A noisy air conditioner could, in theory, jam our nodes. Ive seen it with satellite ground stations. Or a big enough tree. Please someone prove me wrong but thats my understanding.

minus-squarerandombullet@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 months agoEverything will be jammed and everything will be MitMed. Unless you’re very well funded against a state, you don’t have a real chance. Plus meshtastic has no forward secrecy. It’s already vulnerable to store and decrypt attacks.
