Please don't call ProtonMail "end-to-end encrypted email". They are mailing links to content hosted on their own servers. The worst part is that they could easily allow interop and implement proper features in the client. Too

ProtonMail has pretty much stagnated and flat out refuses to cooperate with the community to implement new features of the OpenPGP email standards. Their Reddit guy is also pretty terrible, he pretty much insulted me in a comment after I cr

It's all explained in the article. It is a sandboxing detection method, some environments resolve all DNS requests to a host that captures all traffic. It's still stupid but there is a reason for this behaviour.

Correct. My main issue is that in fact I worked (led development / designed the whole security system) at an encrypted email service and CEO claimed police investigated into us before we ran out of money. It might be bullshit, but I&#x

Being a well-off 19yo engineer in Poland I can't even imagine being treated unequally in everyday life, so that's yet another reason to not visit US for me, other than almost certainly being questioned at a border (although 90% of

I was pretty sure something was broken when I was browsing Docker docs and suddenly I ended up in a moby/moby repo.

I'm fine with stuff like that as long as the text is readable. On a 1080p screen unfortunately it is not. I don't know what they were thinking :/

The guy who does backend at Oakmail here. 1. Supporting external APIs greatly helps the cause. Keybase, Facebook PGP. 2. Custom protocols for TOFU key sharing. There has been some effort in ModernPGP regarding that. Not a fan of that. 3. Ce

I have a bad feeling about GitHub's desire to be more "diverse". https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/941 :^)

The package versioning issue has been solved in 1.5 for most of the popular use cases with the vendor experiment. Works just fine for me!

Right now we don't have any search at all, but we plan to generate search indexes locally in the background.

Right, I ignored sending unencrypted emails as they can be already considered "broken" as soon as they reach Gmail. Those emails are the only ones whose plaintext we see for a short amount of time, but we get rid of it as soon as

1) First of all, Lavaboom is fully opensource - ALL of our sourcecode is published on GitHub, so with enough efford you could download every piece of our setup and run it on your own server. 2) We support true end to end email encryption (i

All encryption is done clientside, all we see are armored PGP messages. Cleartext signing isn't supported right now, but it's in our issue tracker and I believe that it should be implemented during the next few weeks.

From what I've been told, it's significantly harder to confiscate servers in Germany - but even if that somehow happens, all they would find on our servers is a bunch of encrypted blobs.

We actually based the Lavaboom Sync functionality on blockchain.info's model - the private keys are encrypted using user's plaintext password, while the client only sends the password's hash to the server during authenticatio

We plan to improve it in the nearest future. Yesterday I started work on support for message signing, the server part should be ready next week. Later we'll add support for fetching keys from external exchanges (such as pgp.mit.edu).
