    *Will Dark Mail be the next generation e-mail?*
    Lavabit was forced to shut down, since the government wanted access to all
    the mails they had and lavabit refused. Now +Ladar Levison have created the
    next generation safe email. A secure mail solution that doesn’t require
    anything extra from the user, it just works and have end to end
    encryption… that means that the mail provider can’t turn over your mails
    to anyone.
    The problem here is, that many of the big mail providers like to scan your
    email to be able to sell you ads, but that will be impossible here. So the
    question is, if this will take off or not? What do you think?

    This is the start of a future where government surveillance becomes much
    harder than it currently is, and these guys are the pioneers, we should
    have nothing but the utmost respect and support for the work they’re doing.

    I am amazed that a new system on a “secure” server is controlled by Telnet!
    How is that possibly secure?
    If you need some volunteer programming, I am an old time C programmer…
