Our Client interface is a fork of [Signal Messenger](https://signal.org/). ## Summary -Session integrates directly with Loki [Service Nodes](https://lokidocs.com/ServiceNodes/SNOverview/), which are a set of distributed, decentralized and Sybil resistant nodes. Service Nodes act as both federated servers which store messages offline, and a set of nodes which allow for onion routing functionality obfuscating users IP Addresses. For a full understanding of how Session works, read the [Loki whitepaper](https://loki.network/whitepaper). - -**Online Messages** - -If Alice and Bob are both online they can simply resolve each others public keys, to introduction sets, this functionality is handled by interfacing with [Lokinet](https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network). With the appropriate introduction sets Alice and Bob can create a path and using onion routing pass messages through the Loki network without giving away personally identifiable information like their IP address. +Session integrates directly with Loki [Service Nodes](https://lokidocs.com/ServiceNodes/SNOverview/), which are a set of distributed, decentralized and Sybil resistant nodes.
