Danke! In seinem Vortrag „25 Jahre später verschlüsselt Johnny immer noch nicht” geht er auf die vielfältigen Probleme der Emailverschlüsselung ein.

K reloaded<p><strong>Note to self: Heul doch!</strong></p>
<p>Ich kann, will und werde es nicht verstehen, warum die Menschen um mich herum immer noch nach Motto „Dann haben die halt meine Daten. Na und?“ verfahren, und es erst einen Trump braucht, um sie zumindest von US-amerikanischen Datensammlern gaaanz langsam wegzubekommen.</p>
<p>Aber Mail verliert ohnehin an Bedeutung, seit es mehr oder weniger verschlüsselte Messenger gibt, die einem die ganze Arbeit mit der Verschlüsselung abnehmen.</p>
