Lavabit, NSA, Snowden and NSA spying on all of us

Interview by a dope of Levnison, at South by SouthWest, who shut down his Lavabit rather than permit the NSA to peruse "encrypted" email in the server because he was ordered to provide them with the encryption key. He gave them an 11 page typed version of the key which provided time to erase the data base.

He is working on client side encryption, these days. Talks about effectiveness of Snowden.

I only hope viewers understand the magnitude of what was discussed. Understand the assuredness that the feds tear up your privacy. When he offered up the key on paper, the feds announced they would fine him $5,000 per day because he did not provide an electronic key.
