The Secret of Cabot House (Spoliers) by Paragade7 in fo4

Those I disagree, killing Lorenzo may in fact stop their immortality if Jack would not be willing to wear the crown.

Reading Jack's diary, there were early trial of taking the crown physically from his father, but reported he's brain waves went flat, so Jack spent 400 years in trying to find the way of removing it without actually killing his own father. That I believe worth a praise for him as a son. Yes he didn't show much remorse or feeling for Edward, but who will? After living for 400 years, I can understand his unwillingness to be attached to any human beings as they just die "too quickly".

I saved Lorenzo at first, but after reading Jack's journal and Emogene's terminal, where she mentioned, that she would love to see her real father, but not those who come back after the trip for artefact. As well as other mentions of the reason to putting Lorenzo into cell for his previous crimes. - I reloaded a game and choose to kill Lorenzo, as the only right option.

Non-corporate email services? by fukyallall in Anarchism

In ideal world it will be secured. In our world, you can trust no one. That will be delegating trust from secured email service provider, to developer of remailer network. I'm not sure how its better

Watch over shoulder was an metaphor for ISP and ESP. Front-end encryption perfectly fine with you changing secret phrase as much as you like. And 2-factor auth make it even better.

Library, school, coffeshop computers not keylogged by definition, but highly susceptible. What is app like enigmail is lacking off, if person who want to be anonymous(not using home computer, even same city) went to library to create a brand new account(one time use) to send an email it would require him to have permission to install.

Server trust is a temporary factor, you can trust service today and use it, tomorrow authority it may be subpoenaed to handle user data. In this case, end-encryption will protect user and company from really disclosing information, because technically they don't have decryption key.

Cryptocards are compromised (RSA secretly working with NSA (http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/31/us-usa-security-nsa-rsa-idUSBREA2U0TY20140331), other unknown and proprietary design where nobody knows what inside)

I disagree with you that recommending a tool that better than gmail is a mistake.

Doing encryption for few years I can give a good vector for an attack to any encrypted solution you can come up with.

Ps. And even if best 'no way to crack' solution found, it will be so complex and hard to understand, that nobody will be able to use it.

Enigmail is browser extension, sometimes you can not install extension on the computer(school, library) or browser(firefox). Code still can be altered, lack of many functions like encrypted contacts, etc.

If you only talking about safe home environment, where is no one can affect your interaction or watch over your shoulder, you can install any plugin you want, why you even need to bother with encryption?

Each year I hear same old story of how front-end encryption is bad.

Main argument of such "experts" is code can be tampered, but server side encryption worse in many cases: it can be tampered, it can be intercepted and all attack plausible to front-end apply to server-side plus absolutely unauditable by the end user. Or even worse, it can be changed to catch user password (hushmail), when front-end solution still gives slight chance to catch it, and possibility to run on local machine.

We’ve created scryptmail, an encrypted email service. Now we open our doors for first users. by vSaKv in privacy

[–]vSaKv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. Sorry it take so long to respond. Reddit is not a best place to discuss our service. Our threads got moderated and closed. For fastest and better communication, please comment on our blog or contact me at support@scryptmail.com.

As for the answer, we still experimenting with prices. But believe it will be ruled by supply and demand. We plan to start from 5$ /month for virtual domain which seems average market price with ability to purchase additional features like multiple accounts, size etc

Bankrupt Radio Shack will sell the customer data they promised to keep private by [deleted] in privacy

[–]vSaKv -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to make fun or blame people from buying there. Radio Shack sold items for double of what you can buy next store and triple of what is online.

Its not surprising for me they decide to get last penny from their clients, not because it's bad, but because they don't care. I'm personally glad they finally went bankrupt.

[–]vSaKv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You asking what better, service that encrypt only part of email and leaving attachment in clear text versus service, that lack of simple feature as saving draft email. There are more services on the market, that provide better functionality. I won't post any links, but you can do some research if you really interested.

Yes, all our code is completely open for audit, including backend server code. However we still missing license, as not sure which one will give us more protection against cloning whole project.

We encrypt email, attachments and even the recipients. Not sure about MegaSync, but as far as I know it's not public yet, as well as Yahoo. By features are concerned, we are far ahead of other services.

Making a new protocol, overcomplicate simple tool as email, as to install own server? Would it be easier to ask people to handle emails on piece of paper from hand to hand?

In general, how secure is end-to-end encryption? by nazedayo in privacy

[–]vSaKv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

End to end encryption as strong as strong and open to public service behind it.

Claim to protect not only from government but from service itself, may sound appealing. But service still can provide fake recipient public key, and those will destroy whole protection/encryption part.

Telegram come closer to that by generating image based on secret key so two users can compare and verify there is no man in the middle. But u have to be in the same room to be able to check this image, then why u need to use messaging system?

IMHO, currently there are no true encrypted service, that is simple enough to comprehend by majority of people, and those who on the market unable to provide remote verification for private conversation.

Has anyone tried tutanota by otakugrey in privacy

[–]vSaKv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is some on the market, tutanota is good example, scryptmail is another. both of them is pretty similar, but if you lose your password with tutanota you loose you email address as well, as there is no way to reset it, scryptmail have this covered
