It's been almost three months since the closure of Lavabit. Everything, however, shows that the founder of Mrs. Levison it does not put it down. Today the Lavabitand Silent Circle have announced that they are joining forces to launch a new service called Dark Mail. The new service will provide a secure, encrypted peer-to-peer system e-mail που θα είναι πολύ πιο ανθεκτικό στην εποπτεία της κάθε governments. They call it "Dark Mail Alliance. "
"We can no longer trust the internet. "We can not trust governments," Levison said in an interview with Mashable. "So we have to develop a new system that will be resistant to this kind of interferencefundamentals".
The Dark Mail will not only apply to Silent Circle's new secure email applications but will also be offered as an open source operating system based on a new XMPP security protocol architecture developed by Silent Circle and called SCIMP ( Silent Circle Instant Messaging Protocol).
The new email service Dark Mail aims to bring us new e-mails and not like the ones we know. In theory, the providers (owners) won't even have the keys fromencryptions to hand them over to the FBI and NSA if they are ever asked.
The technical details will be published in a few weeks when everything is ready.
