Dark Mail Technical Alliance

                                Our Mission
                                To bring the world our unique end-to-end encrypted protocol and architecture that is the 'next-generation' of private and secure email. As a founding member of The Dark Mail Technical Alliance, Lavabit will work to bring other members into the alliance, assist them in implementing the new protocol and jointly work to proliferate the world's first end-to-end encrypted 'Email 3.0' throughout the world's email providers. Our goal is to open source the protocol and architecture and help others implement this new technology to address privacy concerns against surveillance and back door threats of any kind.
