Off-the-Record Messaging is a way of having secure (encrypted), authenticated communications over instant messaging with no chance of retrospective compromise (cracking the conversation key doesn’t mess with previous converstations) and deniability (you can plausibly deny any knowledge of the communication). I don’t really understand, but I think that it is important. Secure conversations with deniability gives all sorts of options to the good guys and the bad guys.
