Crank up your encryption - GoFuckYourself.com

If anyone wants there stuff to remain private, you better beef up your encryption levels. Feds are loading Carnivore into cores and not meeting much resistance from network admins.

(The story here)

I guess they gotta do what they gotta do, but I'm not giving up my privacy for anyone. Looks like it's time to set it on "Unbreakable".

If anyone is concerned and wants to do something about it, visit EFF here and do your part.

Remember, if uncrackable encryption is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy.

Afraid not. I just found out the feds have been using F-10 pigeons to intercept carrier pigeons.

For those who don't know what Carnivore is or what it's capable of... here ya go

For those wanting to protect themselves against being watched by the Feds, the best protection you can get (short of directly pre-boot encrypting your hard drives) is with PGP. Note: If you're not in the US or Canada... this level of encryption is not available to you. (through legitimate means) It also is apparently only for non-commercial use.

This is not a spam. I do not work for any of the companies involved, they have no affiliate programs (that I'm aware of), and PGP is widely known for being free. I just thought some of you would be interested in this for your privacy and peace of mind.

Just to clarify Amp's post (if I may call you Amp), PGP is fully available to the majority of the world, with the notable exception of places like Libya and Iraq. You can download the so-called 'international' versions from http://www.pgpi.org/ which used to mean something when stong encryption was still covered by the US CAPCOM laws, however in effect the international version of today is just the same as the US version produced by Network Associates.

Even in these troubled times, I'm still a stong believer in the right to privacy, even if the current UK government did introduce the so-called RIP act, which makes it a criminal offence to fail to hand over decryption keys to the police if so told to do so by a court, even forgetting a password isn't a valid reason.

Outlaw encyption, and only criminals will use it. Logical, eh?
