Show HN: A decentralized social network with end-to-end encryption
The cryptography in this system does not appear to be safe. Apart from the fact that it's browser Javascript, which can only be as secure as the server's verified TLS key anyways (and thus doesn't add any security TLS doesn't), it's also using outdated RSA crypto constructions that are vulnerable to attacks.I think you should find an expert to work on this project with you and provide the cryptographic design for you. Cryptography in a social network is like cryptography in a messaging application: it has to work. It's irresponsible to offer someone a solution for sharing secrets (with peers or with their network of close friends) if you can't keep those secrets.Thankfully, you're not doing that yet; I think it was good judgement for you to include the "NOT SECURE" warning in the Readme.Good luck!
