A developer behind Jack Dorsey–linked messaging app Bitchat questioned Uganda’s claim that it can disable the service ahead of next week’s election.
One of the developers behind decentralized messaging app Bitchat has dismissed Uganda’s claim that it can block the service, after authorities threatened a shutdown ahead of upcoming elections.
On Monday, the Uganda Communications Commission executive director, Nyombi Thembo, said his team has the technical know-how to turn off Bitchat.
Bitchat leverages Bluetooth mesh networks, enabling encrypted communication without the need for an internet connection.
