Anyone trying to position Meshtastic as a secure protocol is nuts.

The profile poisoning but is alarming, but I never assume anything broadcast over LoRa to be secure. It's like Twitter, Bsky, FB, etc. don't ever assume a DM is secure.

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social The popularity of Meshtastic has reached the point where clueless (or malicious) randos are driving narratives that are totally besides the project's original goals and principles.

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social "secure" is always dependent on your context/situation.

Meshtastic definitely isn't secure enough to use for private/safe messaging and certainly not if you're trying to avoid censorship or surveillance.
