Can do, but have fun trying to convince all browsers to accept the self signed certificate. Probably be cheaper in time and effort to just buy a real cert.
I'm not going to watch that video, and I'm not going to read the transcript , but do they mention anywhere whether The Feds consider using encrypted communications as a signifier of suspicious activity, and therefore would be more likely to flag you up? From what I remember, it's an offence not to give up your PGP keys when asked, so all in all, if you've got nothing to hide, using encryption is just going to make you look suspicious, and if you do have something to hide, They'll just beat your keys out of you.
Yes they talk about that. The feds keep the encrypted data for up to 5 years. They hope to convince the cert publisher to give them their expired keys and at that point they would be able to decrypt the files. Most certs are only good for 2 years, 3 max I think so they will eventually see what's in there.
Oh yeah, those people with locks on their front doors, they're the ones to watch out for; they're clearly hiding nefarious goings on.
Making myself look suspicious is half the point - the bigger the haystack that whistleblowers can hide in, the better chances of revealing the corruption and getting something done about it.
Do you guys remember what Bill Clinton used to do when he would get into trouble? I.E. Monica Lewinsky...
He would divert our attention by invading some country and soon we'd forget about the blow job he had gotten. I think Obama is taking a page from Willies book!
