@whispersystems is redphone for android going to be renamed signal?
@jonathanstray Calls are relayed through low latency TURN servers around the world. All signaling data is encrypted, so just TA on net.

@whispersystems Thanks. Who runs those servers? Do they have knowledge of connection endpoints? logs? And what is TA? -
@jonathanstray Traffic Analysis. We do, they only log internal errors. -
@whispersystems Isn't there also some sort of contact list sync?

@whispersystems do calls always go through a TURN server? Are they ever p2p? -
@jonathanstray No, p2p is not possible on mobile data networks. That would also make TA much easier. -
@whispersystems really? I can't just open a connection to the IP of someone else's phone? -
@jonathanstray Most carrier nats are actually worse than symmetric.https://whispersystems.org/blog/low-latency-switching/ …
