YESSS!! Ladar Levison rocks!! We need more web company owners like Ladar who rather shut down their service than illegally hand over SSL keys to the FBI. RESPECT!!

Super interesting talk by Ladar Levison about what happend to Lavabit and why you can forget email (even with PGP) !!  Watch the full talk! and learn about the Dark Mail Alliance!!

Ladar Levison shut down LavaBit, but isn’t allowed to say why. Edward Snowden was a LavaBit customer and allegedly several federal agencies wanted his email. Levison will offer advice for how to protect your customer’s data, what to do in the face of a subpoena, and share a cautionary tale of email privacy in the age of Prism.

And support his Dark Mail Initiative Kickstarter to open source the lavabit code!!
