## Description

Anonymous Messenger is a peer-to-peer, private, anonymous and secure messenger that runs over Tor. It is free and open-source under the GNU GPL v3, with no ads, servers, or trackers, and everything operates through Tor.

Features include Double/Triple Diffie-Hellman end-to-end encryption, hidden services, obfs4proxy support, Tor bridges, disappearing messages, screen security, and encrypted file storage. It supports text, voice messages, and live voice calls (alpha), profile pictures, and metadata-stripped media. All data is exchanged peer-to-peer without central servers, giving users full control and verifiability. The GPL-3 license allows redistribution and modification.
