-Mass surveillance is about limiting our freedom, never has our own privacy been
-more at stake. This won't benefit the people, and is not the solution.

-I2P Android will have far more exposure on Google Play than it has ever had before, 
-and there will be bugs and usability issues that we need to fix. It will be much 
-easier (and less stressful!) to respond to feedback if we only need to deal with 
-reports from hundreds of users instead of thousands (already orders of magnitude 
-more feedback than we have ever had).
-
-Simultaneously we are making the first public release of Bote, an Android port 
-of I2P-Bote. Bote is private, distributed, secure email, made easy. It runs on 
-top of the I2P network, and while it works as a standalone app, it will use the 
-I2P Android app by default if installed. As with I2P Android, we are initially 
-only releasing Bote to Android users in Norway.
-
-As lead developer for I2P Android and Bote, str4d look forward to your comments. You 
-are the people who will be using them, and your perspectives will help me craft 
-simple, intuitive apps that make privacy accessible to everyone.

-We advice people from Norway to visit https://blog.privacysolutions.no for more information 
-about the Goole Play release and download links.
