It is intended for activists, but I have never felt comfortable recommending it to my activist friends. I trust the people who run it not to give up data easily, but I don't trust their tech to be at all resistant to a state level actor, which is primarily who activists need to fear.
I'm not convinced this change alters that assessment, as the implementation seems questionable (the secret exchange seems to be on the wrong side of the connection). But maybe I just misunderstand it.
- amdavidson 10y agoThe secret exchange is certainly on the wrong side of the connection, but it's either that or change the way email clients work. We are living in an IMAP4 world and if you choose to "trust the server", as they state it, this seems like a reasonable solution.
