Hoping to seize upon amplified privacy concerns, a former National Security Agency architect launched a free service this week that allows users to easily encrypt their Gmail, Yahoo and Outlook emails.

 

“There is mass concern about privacy. The issue is people don’t know where to go to take action. We’re trying to meet that need,” said John Ackerly, a former White House official who co-founded Virtru with his brother Will.

Looks interesting but, (and there is always a "but") both parties would have to have it otherwise the receiver would not be able to decrypt it.  One thing though, they never mention any fees for this service on their web site.  I wonder how much it costs to use.

Well thats me convinced, any software he makes would have NO back door keys, there is no way in hell he would give his former employers a key of any sort, nosirrrreeee Bob, its all going to be legit.
