I don't see the problem. If I'm selling drugs out of my car and the police have the right to search it, then they have the right to search the paper notebook on the seat next to me. If there's a phone number in there then the

It's pretty freaking obvious there was a language barrier problem here. He knew of the whitehat program, but not the ability within it to create test accounts: he asks the security team to set up a test account so he can post to it to

The 'to' header isn't required to deliver email. You could essentially encrypt the entire header block if you're changing the protocols. What actually delivers the email is the 'RCPT TO' command on the SMTP tra

You can already encrypt email bodies end-to-end using PGP. The unsolved problem is the (queue dramatic music) METADATA!!! For an email to get from your computer to the recipients, it has to have metadata that the intermediate computers unde

The article asks > Is it a good book? Is it $580,905 good? The point it misses, I think, is that it doesn't have to be "$580,905 good". It just has to be $15 or $20 good to each independent backer. If I put up $20 to get a

It annoys me that this is going to gain traction. The only thing that should happen is that to fund something you have to click some really plainly worded opt-ins. But I'm betting regulators will get involved and remove this funding op

I run roundcube on my server for webmail access. It's a web-based IMAP client. I'm not sure what you want from a server that isn't already available in the existing open source IMAP servers.
