And you have obviously never worked with GPG. Encrypting stuff outside of the headers is well supported by any proper mail client. SMTP and IMAP does not give a rats ass about it.
Email is no more or less secure than any other communications medium. Like any other it is entirely a question of how securely the keys used by both parties can be exchanged.
Fine then. Come up with something else that actually engaged the problem.
You wonāt or you are sticking your fingers in your ear and denying it is covered by one of the three I mentioned.
Go ahead and prove to me wrong and that you are being something other than glib. I doubt you will.
Weāve been trying one angle (well, a framework that requires a couple to digest, actually), and honestly thatās most definitely not the only one. Iām a big fan of the corporation as a tool to make a nation thatās not dependent on dirt and can stand up against our government, thatās partly because Iām familiar enough with how they operate and interact with governments that Iām comfortable with exploiting them . . . we shouldnāt have needed to wait for such a messy tool, but hey . . . it is a powerful beast. I really wish it was easier to get people to the fundamentals, however.
Feel free to join in if you want to help, otherwise weāll send you a wave once weāve got something solid you can join.
Yup. OpenPGP (or, hell, even S/MIME) would stop the problem here.
Iām surprised that anyone whoās involved in software and technology, even a lawyer, hasnāt heard the comparison of e-mail to a postcard before. If you wouldnāt put it in a postcard, donāt put it in an email (and the really fun part is that the postcard generally has better legal protections against prying eyes).
That is one possibility covered under the first two I listed or possibly the third depending on how one cares to go about implementing it.
Clever!
I bow to you, sir.

The government has already won then.
"the Tea Party is ample evidence of that "
uhā¦ you are aware that the Tea Party is astroturf, funded by the very kind of neo-feudalists who are instrumental in pushing us towards being an authoritarian corporatist state, right?
Justā¦?
Itās depressing enough that thereās a battle for them to win.
Some areā¦ some arenāt. Yes, the tea party that emerged in the 2011 and 2012 elections was funded in large part to astroturf it into a republican toolā¦ but they didnāt step into a vacuum to do thisā¦ there was already a large group of dissent there.
Whether or not they would have suceeded without the funding is a good question, but they were there. Ron Paul and his ilk was there LONG before Fox News and the Koch Brothers jumped into their territory.
There is nothing clever about threatening violence.
Violence is the opposite of clever. Itās the opposite of civilized, also.
The problem isnāt just the contents of the letter, but what can be (and is) read on the outside of the envelope. Who is contacting whom and when.
And if that is a concern, then itās the appropriate time to use a disposable e-mail account, Tor, and a pseudonymous PGP key (arranged out-of-band, especially in-person). It still amounts to this bizarre, unfounded assumption that a protocol which does not require encryption and does not have anonymity built-in to the spec is somehow secure, for some definition of secure.
And yes, snooping on e-mail is bad. But itās really most appropriate to have been assuming that someone has been (or at the very least could have been) reading your e-mail (or headers) all along, given how the protocol works.
Sorry, but youāre wrong. They were funded from day one by the Koch brother and by the tobacco lobby, among others. The idea that this is a a movement with grassroots origins is a complete turd.
Heh, that sentence works with either āberthā or ābirthā.
Um.
Ron Paul and crew had a tea party movement in 2006 when they were determining how to or whether to join the election in 2008. It initially was not a co-opted movement, but just a rather small vocal group of libertarians.
Of course, where thereās anger, thereās opportunity, and in 2007 the Koch brothers started funding āgrassrootsā groups. Not 2009.
I live in TN. I know whatās going on here. Iāve seen tea party groups for the past 6-7 years here. 
Not to mention, of course, that GPG requires
