Protected ProtonMail anonymous service from the developers of CERN began to send invites Bashny.Net

Back in May of last year Habré came the news that several employees of the European Laboratory for Nuclear Research (CERN) created a postal service ProtonMail. This postal service - one of the most protected in the world. For example, all the information is encrypted on the client side yet, and all the servers are located on the service in Switzerland.

In this country, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to gain access to someone else's private information. In general, the service can excel which closed recently Lavabit, which was used by Edward Snowden, as Habré also wrote .

order to authenticate the user using two-factor authentication, with two passwords. One password is used to log in to your own account as well as for their own data in encrypted form. The second password gives access to the encryption key, with which all the information provided in a readable form. In this second password can not be recovered - Support does not help if you lose the password.

There is also the ability to send messages that are destroyed after a certain time (though, as far as we can understand here the recipient must also work with the same service to provide this functionality).

So, after the discovery of services and the dissemination of information about it, developers have received a huge number of people willing to get a box. The influx of users was so great that the developers had to close the first open to all registered and enter the invites. After seeing the popularity of the service, the developers have decided to launch a campaign to raise funds for the purchase of additional equipment.

One user Habra DONATE and got a ready-made account of what there is corresponding article .

So, starting today, users who have previously requested an invite, began to receive invitations to check your mailbox. Received such an invite and I, however, immediately got the first bug - when you try to go on the link, the system displays the message «Invalid invite token». The message to developers about this glitch already otpravvleno, so we wait.

Nevertheless, glad that the service continues to work and develop. Hopefully, that will soon open registration for all comers. Perhaps this will be done after the service exits beta stage.
