  add to my toolbox

  ChatSecure (Gibberbot) is a secure chat client capable of firewall and filter circumvention, surveillance blocking and end-to-end encryption. It works with Google, Facebook, any Jabber or XMPP server, such as OpenFire or eJabberD. Unlike Blackberry BBM’s broken single key security, Gibberbot uses the Off-the-Record encryption standard to enable true verifiable end-to-end encrypted communications.

  Free unlimited, private, secure messaging with your friends over Facebook Chat, Google Talk, Hangouts, Jabber, Dukgo & more! Works with Android, iPhone, Mac, Linux or PC.

  add to my toolbox

  Based on the open-source Shadow browser from the University of Cambridge, Orweb works hand in hand with Orbot to provide web access that is able to circumvent web filters and firewalls, while also improving a users ability to remain anonymous online. Orweb also enables whitelist control of cookies, keeps no local history, disables Flash, and requires only Internet permissions, keeping you safe from malicious content. Beyond Tor, Orweb also supports any HTTP proxy server.
