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. http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/06/guardian-reporter-delayed-e-mailing-nsa-source-because-crypto-is-a-pain/ NK -- Too many emails?
