Some quick fixes

A few are simply typos and grammatical changes:

- Remove Lena's message (as per their request)
- Update chatroom rules for Matrix
- Fix various grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, etc.
- Add Lucas to mod status
- Remove in memoriam of Lena

Lena has requested (very explicitly, I might add) that we remove all of her
"stupid fucking messages". This is me doing that.

Hello I'm back,
**First I'll thank you immensely Alex for salvaging this and helping me. Thank you. Thank you so much.**
My name is Lena, I'm 22 years old, I'm Ukrainian from Kyiv. Online, I'm I'm just a simple anonymity and privacy activist.
I also used to be an activist in real life for various causes and did my share of protests. I was forced to flee the country like many others, and for the moment reside in Germany.
I'm a firm supporter of human rights, equality, repect, I hate corruption, and now ... sorry but not sorry ... I seriously dislike Russians who still support Putin but in particular, I really hate pro-russian Chechnians who came to Ukraine for the sport as they are just savages to my eyes. This is my sole personal opinion.
I also strongly believe privacy should be a universal right and that anonymity should never become illegal. I don't want our lives to turn into Gattaca, Minority Report, Black Mirror, or 1984 (Too late for that one, I'm afraid). I do not want our laws and rights to become terms of services.
My goal is to bring accessible knowledge on these topics to the many and hopefully reach the few good people who really need it. In this specific case, I think the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many.
Some facts about me:
- I am not rich.
- I enjoy good memes, movies, series, and books (and I'm sure some of you will spot some of the many references to those in my project).
Please share this project if you enjoy it and think it might be useful to others.

# Appendix B7: Caution about Session Messenger
Here are our reasons for being cautious about Session messenger in general:
Here are our reasons:
- The company is based in Australia which has very unfavorable privacy laws.[^536]' [^537]
- The company is based in Australia which has very *unfavorable* privacy laws.[^536]' [^537]
- They push their own cryptocurrency, Oxen, which creates a conflict of interest.
- They use LokiNet, which requires Oxen to run nodes to route Session traffic, and it costs 15,000 $OXEN or 3,750 $OXEN for a shared node[^538], which is about ~$1,800 US dollars or ~$500 US dollars, respectively.
- The price of running nodes essentially puts their network behind a paywall if you want to run a node, even just to contribute bandwidth to the network like you might with Tor. But there is a stakeless fork of Lokinet.
