As you have no doubt read, a 15-year-old shot and killed the rest of his family in New Mexico yesterday. (here's an account from the NY Daily News)

In addition to being utterly tragic, this incident "shoots down" two of the Right Wing's favorite talking points: the myth of the responsible gun owner, and the shifting of blame onto secular society.

Email by its very nature is not secure. A number of events in recent months have hinted at the issue of email privacy: Sarah Palin's yahoo account debacle, and revelations that nsa wiretapping included pretty much everyone, to name two.

What I have not seen mentioned is that anyone can take measures to protect their communications from unwelcome eyes. PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) and its open source version, GnuPG solve two large security deficiencies of the electronic mail system. Follow me below the fold for a discussion of the weaknesses of email and how pgp provides for secure, verifiable electronic communication.
