Secure Messaging is a new innovation for confidential story-sharing and source protection, underpinning the Guardian’s commitment to investigative journalism. The Guardian has published the open source code for this important tech to enable adoption by other media organisations.
You’re talking about encryption and signal because you’re worried about folks whose network you’re connected to being able to invade your privacy, right?
I’d say it’s a pretty reasonable suggestion to say we start with those guys. If you don’t worry about those guys, who do have access to traffic info, then why bother with encryption?

LOL no? I’d never blow the whistle on my employer from my desk. Even if I did, I would connect to a different network.
I recognize other people are not as conscious as I am of that vulnerability but you asked about me, specifically.

Any number of other people. Primarily the government.
Easy for whom? How are you getting access to the traffic info?

Right, so if the header isn’t encrypted, it’d be trivial for them to see who you’re sending to, which is why that’s important.
You never answered my question - do you think the network connection itself is encrypted? Or just the content of the messages?
