Re: [tor-talk] Tor Mail Gateway

Yes. Edward Snowden did a good job and probably had smart tactics for
securing his Internet traffic before meeting with them. It being a
condition may have been the case but even then he is already public so what
we need to focus on is that. If he really needed security he should of used
TorMail as it is secure and it is hard to trace as access is only on the
inside but forwards to external relay servers. Down time is an issue though.
