Abdullah Ibhais

Inside World Football reported that Abdullah Ibhais, a former media manager for the Qatar 2022 World Cup organizing committee and a known whistleblower, has been detained for a second time in Jordan. Ibhais has previously alleged that he was targeted by Qatari authorities for speaking out about labor rights abuses and corruption within the World Cup preparations. The detention has drawn criticism from human rights advocates who argue that Qatar is continuing its efforts to silence critics and whistleblowers beyond its own borders, raising serious questions about the state's commitment to international human rights standards.

Quantum-resistant symmetric encryption
Zero-knowledge architecture
Open-source ready
Built for the Post-Quantum Era — AES-256-GCM combined with PBKDF2 (310,000 iterations) is considered quantum-resistant because symmetric encryption only suffers a quadratic speedup from Grover's algorithm — effectively reducing 256-bit security to 128-bit, which remains computationally infeasible to break.
