Chapter 1 - Set Well-defined Group Communication Privileges
Intergenerational or cross culture communication privileges are not something that should be assumed or asserted long-term trustful communication really the goal. It is best to understand this by way of a challenge: How many days does it take to get 3 of your highest trust groups (we call your “3 Key Channels”) into the simplest free and open source secure group messaging app? Please tell us how many days to completing this challenge and what obstacles you encountered in the 🟡 Signal.
Step 1 - Get 3 Groups activated into a Secure Group Messaging app like Signal
For technical sources, see:
For How To Guides, see:
The short of it is start by setting up the group messaging app from Signal.org, and create 3 Key Channels:
- My Secure Family Channel
- My Secure Business Channel
- My Confidants Channel which enables you to share passwords, sensitive, and confidential information via the simplest free and open source secure group messaging app - Signal.
In the description of the Confidants Channel in Signal, add your Group Password (that you or an security officer determine) and your Notice, Records, & Consent Policy if needed.
Under Group Settings, select “Group Link”, and set it to “On” ![[CleanShot 2024-02-27 at 23.25.10@2x.png]] You may also want to set “Approve new members” to “On” especially for Confidants Channels.
Most importantly, copy the Group link and share it with a message to you 3 Key Channels:
- Your family members (you might have more than one family group channels)
- Your business associates (you might have more than one organized by roles or relationships)
- Your confidants who have consented to a MNDA
Example message you can copy-paste-edit:

Step 2 - Adopt at least the Peacemakers’ Compact Y24-04 in each Group
Privileges (or Powers) must be negotiated with some fair and equitable dispute resolution principles in mind. We suggest starting with Peacemakers’ Compact Y24-04 and add additional roles, privileges, or responsibilities if needed. Ask for help via the ✨Krono.Works Signal Lobby channel.
Step 3 - Agree to at least Admin and Member Responsibilities and Privileges
Easiest to just start with the Peacemakers’ Compact Y24-04. Ask for help via the ✨Krono.Works Signal Lobby channel.
Step 4 - Record, Verify, and (selectively) Publish your Group Admin Details
If you do deviate from the Peacemakers’ Compact Y24-04, make sure to get it professionally recorded, verified, and published. Ask for help via the ✨Krono.Works Signal Lobby channel.
Conclusion
Although not something most people want to think about often, it is critical to get any and every high-trust group aligned around a secure group commutation with clearly defined responsibilities and privileges. If you want help, ask for it at ✨Krono.Works Signal Lobby.
