And, one last thing I will call people's attention to, in here...
(Besides the ultra-professional type of quality marketing campaign - wonderful site, videos, propaganda etc - for which I don't know were they got their money from...)
This "Mailpile" project is promoted by the (technology-focused) mass media. ("Wired" magazine etc.) Which is always a (very) bad sign.
The Snowden revelations (or the part of them that is/may be true) only tell a small part of the story...
Ultimately, it's not the US government who controls the big corporations. And dictates what they should or shouldn't do. It's the other way around... And, that includes the corporations who own (or have shares in, or are somehow linked to - and in control of) all the major mass media organizations.
That is... The mass media (with focus on various generic or specific themes) are just a "propaganda arm" of the major corporations, who control the US government, and all the other Western ones, behind the scenes. (http://www.amazon.com/True-Story-Bilderberg-Group/dp/0979988624/)
And, they would *never* promote a piece of software (/future network?) like this, if it was a good way to evade the "Big Brother", made of the NSA and the likes, who take their orders from the big corporations' puppets inside the US government.
Simply putting it... It's like having "Big Brother" itself saying: "If you want to hide from me, go there..."
And, it's kind of the same story as with the "Tor" network - that I've called people's attention to, in here, before (https://trisquel.info/en/forum/how-use-tor-trisquel#comment-26792) and that this "Mailpile" project plans to use - where you have the US government telling what people should use to try to hide from him.
(Maybe this warning will only make sense to the more politically informed, who can already see some of the things for what they really are. But, I guess it's worth a try... And, any doubts you may have, I can elaborate on this...)
