Its sad that high profile news organizations in the United States now need to use secure communication channels out of fear of being harassed by their own government.
- pavel_lishin 13y agoThey have always needed to communicate securely.
- genwin 13y agoThey haven't shown the gov't who's the boss since Watergate. They've been content to be subservient since then. Next, gov't will require them to use decryptable communications.
- guelo 13y agoAs far as we know the government only obtained records of the timestamps and endpoints of the communication, not the content. Encryption wouldn't help there, you need something like Tor. But the problem is that in order to setup a comm channel over Tor you would have to communicate over an insecure channel to set it up. Any idea of what could be the solution for a news org?
- AJ007 13y agoI said secure, not encrypted, for that reason. This isn't a problem that needs one solution, but multiple, layered ones. Communication should be disposable and deniable.
