564: Summer of Snowden
Lavabit, Dark Mail Alliance, Phil Zimmermann
Ladar Levison of Lavabit is launching the "Dark Mail Alliance" alongside PGP creator Phil Zimmermann to develop a new secure email protocol. Adam Curry expresses skepticism about the project's intellectual property controls and Levison's past willingness to cooperate with federal authorities for a fee. He warns listeners not to be "snookered" by the "Summer of Snowden" marketing.
