 I'm just trying as hard as possible to put it out of my life, revise and
 increase my security culture, and keep on with my work. Dwelling on that
 incident is just counter-productive and frustrating.

 Yeah, I remember that part. Don't worry, it gets better.

 This is sort of a bootstrap problem, isn't it? :)

 Targeted attacks are my main concern with both CryptoCat and Pidgin. I'm
 not exactly willing to dive right in myself and announce a public XMPP
 addr using either pidgin or CryptoCat at this point. I am hoping an alpha
 cycle will give us time to understand that threat in better detail for
 CryptoCat. I am also hoping that if the JS crypto implementations really
 are a problem, an alpha cycle will give us time to realize that and stub
 them out to C/C++ functions if necessary. For TBB, we can easily patch
 Firefox and add whatever libs we want, after all.

 At any rate, #tor-dev on irc.oftc.net is best for realtime chat. 6697 is
 SSL.
