| Thanks for passing this on SpannerITWks .
Long time ago I setup an automated e-mail forwarding system that encrypted my e-mails. Funny thing was I never could read them once I got them, so strange. I wonder if it was the age old problem of garbage-in/garbage-out? On the positive side, I bet it kept some NSA person employed...  -- Windows OS/Apps - the hackers choice year after year |

This is obviously false advertising. i guess you have never used ethereal or any other packet sniffing program to sniff network traffic. Its amazing what you can find out about people in emails -- If you do not think GOD is funny, take a trip to Wal-Mart and look at some of the people. |

Its amazing what you can find out about people in emails I know fully well that most people do not encrypt their email, and that that is very unfortunate. However, to claim that "all your e-mails are stored and sent around the planet in plain text" is a blatant lie. As a personal user of PGP, I can attest to that. |

| reply to heels_fan I think Tom Mc was suggesting that there are already people who use email encryption, and therefore the advertising blurb was too broad. |

| reply to SpannerITWks If I am reading the FAQ correctly, then this depends on using the freenigma site as a trusted Man in the Middle. You don't send your email to them, but they provide you with the session key. Maybe they will store up session keys, and could be required by a court to divulge them.
They are probably honest, and not doing that. But, just the same, I won't be installing their firefox extension just now. I would much prefer an extension that requires you to install GnuPG on the client machine and that generates the session key locally instead of at the server. |
