Cursive is based off a fork of La Clojure from a long time ago. Since then I've rewritten 80% of the code in Clojure and added a lot of new functionality and fixed a lot of bugs. There's lots of new stuff in there, but the main hi

You can use something like https://github.com/al3x/sovereign and at least not have your data in Google et al. The problem is, it's not as convenient.

If stopped by an inquisitor, I'm likely to assert my right to silence. This may mean I'm detained and intimidated for 9 hours. It's worse than this - since border zones are considered legal no-mans-land, you actually don&#x

I think you should also make it clear in the readme that just hosting data in a better jurisdiction doesn't help in a lot of cases, since if the data owner or host lives in a different less friendly jurisdiction the law becomes almost

I think you can pretty much colour the Echelon Five Eyes countries (USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand) red right off the bat. If they don't have totally intrusive surveillance legislation yet they will have soon - New Zealand is

This is why I religiously read and pay for the Guardian. They still run massive losses but I do what I can - they're the best news source I've found by far.

Don't worry, you're not weird. I used Emacs full time for 8 years and I've made occasional attempts to go back to it for various things. In my opinion it's awful, and I know a fair number of people who feel that way. In

My other question about ephemeral keys is whether they're useful for something like email. I understand how they work for transient conversations like HTTPS or chats (although if you archive the chats forever you'd have the same p

There are strong cryptographers who are working on much, much better systems than PGP. Could you give us some examples of these? How far away from prime time usage do you estimate they are? Are any of them usable right now?

The Guardian ran a pros-and-cons comparison previously of the various options Snowden might have (Venezuela and Ecuador at that time IIRC). One of the downsides of Venezuela was that the violent crime is so bad it would be relatively easy t
