> Does Google's switch to https (http://rt.com/news/google-gmail-encryption-nsa-297/) actually protect against NSA snooping? Yes, unless the NSA has some advanced future tech, like a working quantum computer, then it should… for now. It’s not future proof, because any captured data that the NSA sniffs and stores may one day be crackable. We don’t know how far in the future that is, but it will happen. Presumably by then, we would have even stronger encryption, but that doesn’t help preserve data encrypted with current methods. > Does TOR?
