After #132 is implemented

Naive behavior

  • Mobile encrypts the resource(s)
  • Mobile streams the resource(s) via WebRTC

However, WebRTC unlocks sharing large files (hundreds of MB), which might not conveniently fit in memory for full encryption before streaming.

Desired behavior

  • Mobile streams the resource(s) via WebRTC, while encrypting the data being sent

This way, the mobile does not need to hold the whole file(s) in memory.

WebRTC is natively P2P and E2EE so ... we might not need custom encryption at all!
