Ralph, no, this is not a solution. We can escape to Mars, but this is not solution too :-) I don't write about confidential corporate, government or privacy data only. I consider any spy without legal reason again my person as malign act. In our country here are laws for protection the letters (i am not sure with translation). We have protections again unsolicited telephony spy. Nobody can arbitrarily add bugs (sk: odpočúvacie zariadenie) into my home. I know that all these are "local" services. But here is nothing, what will protect my communication on the internet. No one will be criminal, if he will break my communication. And this is what i see as problem, as a big problem, because our direction is into world, where wiretapping is something normal :-( > > > http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/05/nsa-how-to-remain-secure-surveillance > > We have some software solutions. Could a system be also compromised > when using a generic hardware layer? And if so, what options exist? I take some time to read some articles from The Guardian and The NY Times at last weekend. And there was some older (at PRISM time) article which provides some tips. Some from them: + don't use any services which are under USA laws, they are compromised + don't use proprietary cipher software nor devices, nobody can know if they are compromised + be careful with open source software too, because they can be compromised too If you have enough money, the best solution is to develop own cipher solution. If not, the open source can be better (and more secure) choice than proprietary, but not provides 100% safety too. But i am surprised by the small amount of responses too. Nobody takes care about this? Or people afraid already? regards -- Slavko http://slavino.sk
