 As a contrast, consider the Signal Protocol for instant messaging. I will not attempt to describe Signal in any detail as I would get parts of it wrong. It would also make for a pointlessly long article. There is a high level description of the Signal protocol [[https://signal.org/docs/|here]]. None of the following comments are intended to be critical, they are intended to give an idea of the level of complexity of the protocol in total:
-  * Signal has at least 2 systems for creating [[pgpfan:forward_secrecy|forward secrecy]]. Each systems requires a system to deal with loss of synchronization.
+  * Signal has at least 2 systems for creating [[pgpfan:forward_secrecy|forward secrecy]]. Each system requires a system to deal with loss of synchronization.
   * A Signal session requires the storage and maintenance of a lot of state information.
   * Signal normally uses a server based "prekey" system to deal with the case where a client is offline and thus is unable to negotiate.
