This story really solidifies why I believe that we need to make privacy 
technologies accessible to journalists, instead of simply focusing on the other 
way around.

Glenn Greenwald had to substantially delay his communications with Edward 
Snowden due to how inaccessible a lot of privacy and encryption software is to 
use.

Our main and primary goal at Cryptocat has been to focus on making encrypted 
communications accessible, easier to use and fun and attractive. We've always 
believed that accessibility is a security feature, and this idea is at the core 
of our project.
