What is ding dash doing to protect the identity of persecuted Christians and missionaries in those countries?
Based on my profile I pretend to be a fellow follower of Christ from central Europe but I could also be a governmental agent from the chinese communist party. And if so, it would be very dangerous for Chinese people to get in touch with me.
Are there ways of protection for such cases or is that considered as a personal issue, where we just need to be wise in what information we share?
@Matthias thanks for asking this. I'd wondered a bit too. I really appreciate the opportunity to connect with believers around the world and pray for each other in a more personal and connected way. However, I do hope protection is in place to keep the wrong people from misusing this platform!
@Matthias I'm pretty new here myself. Signup is free, so we should expect all sorts of people listening.
To communicate more safely I recommend the mailservice protonmail (as has been recommended before by others) Every mail between protonmail users are encrypted and don't leave their servers. But then, your device might be compromised also.
From my understanding there will never be a really safe way of communication. We need to trust in the Lord. Protection from or strength in persc. is His
@erdenpilger @Matthias True. It seems impossible to completely secure Ding Dash from potential threats. I still hope maybe there are ways the creators of this platform have reduced that threat, especially in more restrictive countries. But, either way, I do believe those sharing on here are being cautious. They are sharing things so we can pray, but not giving overly specific details, or exact locations, etc. I believe they are exercising wisdom.
@Matthias We asked this question early on also.
@Matthias I have been wondering the same thing.
