Summary:
C: A Pidgin plugin which implements Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging
Description:
C: |-
<p>OTR allows you to have private conversations over IM by providing: - Encryption - No one else can
read your instant messages. - Authentication - You are assured the correspondent is who you think it
is. - Deniability - The messages you send do _not_ have digital signatures that are checkable by a third
party. Anyone can forge messages after a conversation to make them look like they came from you. However,
_during_ a conversation, your correspondent is assured the messages they see are authentic and unmodified.
- Perfect forward secrecy - If you lose control of your private keys, no previous conversation is compromised.</p>
