Hushmail Passing PGP Keys to the US Government
teknopurge writes "Apparently Hushmail has been providing information to law enforcement behind the backs of their clients. Billed as secure email because of their use of PGP, Hushmail has been turning over private keys of users to the authorities on request. 'DEA agents received three CDs which contained decrypted emails for the targets of the investigation that had been decrypted as part of a mutual legal assistance treaty between the United States and Canada. The news will be embarrassing to the company, which has made much of its ability to ensure that emails are not read by the authorities, including the FBI's Carnivore email monitoring software.'"
emails aren't read by the authorise and submissions are edidet by the slashdot janitors.

These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
> What alternatives are there besides Hushmail?
^^^this got informative? Do the people with mod points this week own dictionaries?
GPG works fine.
^^^ Insightful? Well at least there is some grain of truth to that modding, this would be the place for informative...
and this post here would be offtopic, not flaimbait or troll, mod accordingly. Seriously though do people just try to use up all their points on the first two comments they see?
