WEBVTT 00:01.090 --> 00:01.510 Okay. 00:01.510 --> 00:08.440 So now that we have the account set up, let's go and see how we can log in to this account and communicate 00:08.440 --> 00:11.980 with friends using Pidgin as the instant messenger. 00:12.790 --> 00:16.090 So I'm going to go to a new desktop now. 00:16.090 --> 00:18.180 Pidgin comes pre-installed and tells. 00:18.190 --> 00:23.830 So this is great and this is one of the reasons that I chose to cover it and one of the reasons why 00:23.830 --> 00:26.620 it's so popular, because you don't need to install it. 00:26.620 --> 00:28.660 And as we know, tales is live. 00:28.660 --> 00:32.530 So it's always great when you can just use the built in applications. 00:33.160 --> 00:38.740 So we're going to go to applications and you can find Pidgin in here in the favorites, as you can see 00:38.740 --> 00:43.120 in here, or you can find it under Internet and we have it right here. 00:43.690 --> 00:45.310 Now we're going to launch this. 00:46.400 --> 00:50.600 And as you can see, as soon as you start it, it will have two default accounts. 00:50.750 --> 00:52.850 Now, we're not going to be using these accounts. 00:52.850 --> 00:55.890 We want to use our own account, which we just created. 00:55.910 --> 01:03.620 So I'm going to click on ADD and I'm going to choose that this account is going to be an ex amp account. 01:04.850 --> 01:12.650 I'm going to put the username and as you remember, the username that we picked was JH N, W, C K and 01:12.650 --> 01:17.060 the domain that we set this on was this domain right here, this mail. 01:17.280 --> 01:21.920 D So I'm going to copy it and paste it here. 01:22.700 --> 01:27.620 I'm going to put the password, which is the same password that I chose when I signed up. 01:29.400 --> 01:31.530 And I'm going to click on ADD. 01:32.660 --> 01:33.140 Now. 01:33.140 --> 01:33.600 Perfect. 01:33.620 --> 01:39.430 Now I'm actually logged in, as you can see here at the bottom, the circle is green and it says available. 01:39.440 --> 01:40.760 This is my status. 01:40.760 --> 01:46.640 So if anybody has added me to their friends list or buddy list, they will see me as available. 01:46.640 --> 01:54.980 And using this we can set it to a way do not disturb or offline if we want to go offline now this is 01:54.980 --> 01:55.460 fine. 01:55.460 --> 01:57.830 Let's go ahead and add a friend. 01:57.830 --> 01:59.750 So I'm going to go to buddies. 02:00.050 --> 02:03.290 I'm going to click on Add Buddy to add another friend. 02:03.590 --> 02:07.720 So the first thing it's asking us which account I want to add this friend to. 02:07.730 --> 02:10.160 This is our account that we're using right now. 02:10.160 --> 02:11.810 So I'm going to keep this the same. 02:11.810 --> 02:16.580 If you had multiple accounts, you can click this and select the other account that you want to add 02:16.580 --> 02:17.570 your friend to. 02:18.380 --> 02:23.900 Next, it's asking us for the buddies username, the username of the friend that I want to add. 02:23.900 --> 02:31.460 And I've already set up another account on a different zip server just to show you that you can communicate 02:31.460 --> 02:34.370 with any zip server with any account. 02:34.370 --> 02:41.870 And the other account that I set up is J and wc k to add jabber. 02:43.030 --> 02:46.780 Dot sys ally dot org. 02:46.810 --> 02:52.330 So as you can see, this is a completely different server, but we should be able to communicate with 02:52.330 --> 02:52.780 it. 02:53.530 --> 02:54.700 I'm going to add it. 02:55.740 --> 02:59.730 And if we go to the other account, which is this one right here. 03:00.270 --> 03:06.840 So this is another Thales machine that I'm already logged in to the account that I just added to John 03:06.840 --> 03:10.130 Wick two at Jabber dot system WL dot org. 03:10.140 --> 03:17.400 And as you can see he got a friend request from my other email which is John Wick at this m.d. 03:17.580 --> 03:21.120 So I can authorize or deny this and I'm going to authorize it. 03:21.120 --> 03:25.440 I'm going to allow him to add me and I'm going to add him as a friend as well. 03:26.040 --> 03:33.180 So if we go back here, we can see we have John Wick as a friend and we can see there is a green circle 03:33.210 --> 03:33.720 beside it. 03:33.720 --> 03:41.250 So he's online and if I double click this, let's close this, we will get an instant messaging screen 03:41.250 --> 03:46.800 again, very similar to what you get in other applications and other instant messengers. 03:46.800 --> 03:48.870 And you can start sending messages. 03:48.870 --> 03:52.680 So let's say, hey, let's see if we receive it here. 03:53.760 --> 03:59.520 As you can see, we got a message here in a new tab from John Wick at this melody. 03:59.550 --> 04:06.600 He said, hey, let's say hello back just to test and going back here, as you can see, we got the 04:06.600 --> 04:07.500 message back. 04:08.370 --> 04:12.090 Now, before we wrap this up, I want to highlight one more thing. 04:12.300 --> 04:19.020 So right now, when we send something through X amp, we are connecting to the Tor network because as 04:19.020 --> 04:25.470 we know, Thales route everything through the Tor network, then whatever we're sending is exiting the 04:25.470 --> 04:33.660 Tor network to the X NPP server because the x NPP server is on the clear net and then it's relayed to 04:33.660 --> 04:34.770 the destination. 04:35.610 --> 04:41.470 Now, all of the servers that I showed you offer a hidden service x NTP server. 04:41.490 --> 04:48.540 So what happens in that case is we connect to the Tor network and whatever message we send directly 04:48.540 --> 04:53.850 goes to an x NP server that is running as a hidden service. 04:53.880 --> 05:00.900 Therefore, it never leaves the Tor network making full use of the privacy and anonymity that the Tor 05:00.900 --> 05:02.040 network offers. 05:02.730 --> 05:06.660 Now, to do this, we need to slightly modify the way we configured. 05:06.660 --> 05:14.370 PIDGEON So let's go back to tails and I'm going to go up to the list of the servers and I'm going to 05:14.370 --> 05:17.740 look for the server that I used, which is this one right here, this mail. 05:18.000 --> 05:22.950 D And as you can see, we have the link for its hidden service right here. 05:23.880 --> 05:25.350 I'm going to copy this. 05:25.350 --> 05:27.420 I'm going to go down to pigeon. 05:27.690 --> 05:30.660 I'm going to sign out of my current account. 05:30.900 --> 05:34.890 I'm going to go to offline and we're going to go to accounts. 05:35.280 --> 05:41.640 We're going to manage my account and this is the account that we want to modify its server so that we 05:41.640 --> 05:43.320 connect to the hidden service. 05:43.320 --> 05:49.980 Instead of directly connecting to the clear net server, we're going to click on Modify to modify its 05:49.980 --> 05:50.790 settings. 05:50.790 --> 05:54.150 And keep in mind we're keeping the basic exactly the way it is. 05:54.150 --> 06:00.150 We're still using the same username and the same clear net domain because this is our address. 06:00.150 --> 06:06.480 But what we want to modify is in the advanced tab, which is the Kinect server. 06:06.720 --> 06:13.620 So you want to set the server to the hidden service that you want to use as the SNMP server to connect. 06:14.190 --> 06:15.120 And that's it. 06:15.120 --> 06:18.270 We're going to click on Save and we're good to go. 06:18.270 --> 06:22.950 I'm going to close this and I'm going to change my status to available again. 06:25.130 --> 06:27.000 It's going to ask you for the password. 06:27.020 --> 06:29.570 We're going to put it on. 06:29.570 --> 06:29.970 Perfect. 06:29.990 --> 06:31.070 We're back online. 06:31.100 --> 06:32.990 I can see my body right here. 06:32.990 --> 06:35.300 And let's send him another text message. 06:36.660 --> 06:39.450 And go to his account and perfect. 06:39.450 --> 06:42.510 As you can see, we got the message from him right here. 06:44.420 --> 06:50.210 So as you can see, very simple, very intuitive, very similar to any other messaging app that you 06:50.210 --> 06:50.990 can use. 06:51.230 --> 06:57.380 The great thing about this is, like I said, it's decentralized so anyone can start their own server. 06:57.410 --> 07:00.500 There is no one company that controls how this works. 07:00.920 --> 07:03.720 Pidgin comes pre-installed entails. 07:03.740 --> 07:07.100 Therefore you don't need to install any third party programs. 07:07.100 --> 07:11.210 And as we know, tails is amnesic and live and secure enough. 07:11.210 --> 07:14.300 Therefore you're benefiting from all of these features. 07:14.840 --> 07:20.110 The only problem right now is, as you can see here, it's saying the connection is not private. 07:20.120 --> 07:24.740 So the communication right now between us two is not private. 07:25.160 --> 07:31.220 Now TLS is used, so there is a layer of encryption, but it's not end to end encryption. 07:31.220 --> 07:34.430 And ideally we want to use end to end encryption. 07:34.430 --> 07:41.810 So the message gets encrypted at my end and it never gets decrypted until it reaches the destination. 07:41.810 --> 07:48.560 So even the server owner or anybody that intercepts this message would not be able to read it because 07:48.560 --> 07:51.530 it will be encrypted throughout the whole way. 07:52.440 --> 07:58.890 So at the next lecture I'm going to show you how to configure pigeon to use end to end encryption.
