Andy Yen: Think your email's private? Think again
wie Sie tun, machen, Film, Beispiel
Sending an email message is like sending a postcard, says scientist Andy Yen in this thought-provoking talk: Anyone can read it. Yet encryption, the technology that protects the privacy of email communication, does exist. It's just that until now it has been difficult to install and a hassle to use. Showing a demo of an email program he designed with colleagues at CERN, Yen argues that encryption can be made simple to the point of becoming the default option, providing true email privacy to all.

You hold the lock and I hold the key.

Run your own email server for your family, none of your family has that problem anymore.

Approximately every android device out there has a backdoor pre-installed in it. privacy is nothing now-a-days. it's just an illusion ...

The question on my mind is "How does Bob get the public key from Alice?" Apparently his solution to the problem is have a hosted mail server distribute keys but he never says that. How can we get a desktop app like Thunderbird to manage public keys?

finally got the secured mail from you thanks a lot.... started using from now

Is there anyone else on here that's in the least bit concerned with the fact that CERN is a part of this?

But commercial email is more secure and reliable. Who cares if companies use your data anonymously, when it comes with superior security and networking resources? He is basically running a[n albeit voluntary] subscription basis service. Free market wins.

On the flip side, if one completely gives up his/her privacy, the data can be used to advance many scientific research and enhance human QOL. If the government were to waive my income tax, they can have access to my entire life, i ain't got nothin' to hide.
