Aangat Lahat

Kamusta! Welcome to Aangat Lahat. Aangat means "to lift up" or "to rise up" and lahat means "all" so aangat lahat to me can mean either "we should lift each other up" as in mutual aid or "we should all rise up" as in to rebel against oppressive systems. So the services under Aangat Lahat is my way of offering some sort of digital mutual aid for online communications. The amount of time and resources that I can dedicate to support and dealing with abuse is limited, so membership is only offered to close friends, family, and people in my affinity groups.

For Current Members

If you have an account, you can find the dashboard in this page. From there, you can log in and manage the services that are available to you. If you run into any issues, check out the status page to see if the services are running or contact me on:

Tor Relays

These are not limited to Aangat Lahat members but are a part of the broader Tor network which helps circumvent censorship and provides anonymity freely to anyone. I run 4 non-exit relays and 1 exit relay. All relays are running OpenBSD under the hood.

Privacy and security

Event and access logs are disabled so I don't know your IP address or how frequently you use the services, but I do have access to unencrypted data like sent emails and chats.

Your data won't be viewed unless I'm investigating technical issues like abuse or spam. Make sure to use encryption if possible when using email (check out Mailvelope or Delta Chat or GPGTools) or when using Jabber (check out Conversations, ChatSecure, or Gajim) or when sharing files (check out Hat.sh) for extra privacy. Consider deleting old data that you no longer need as well if possible.

Backups are encrypted and stored on both Vultr and Rsync.net for redundancy.
