I wonder if Snowden is a TAILS user. The legacy of the foundation of computer science is that very little of the technology was built for privacy. Something like Tor or I2P ought be the internet standard. Computer architecture ought to be designed under the assumption that it will be attacked and surveilled. These standards are not something that will come from the corporate world, it has to be grass roots and institutional. While we're at that task, we can do away with all the proprietary and opaque systems that the corporate world has been busy creating.
