Edward Snowden urges professionals to encrypt client communications

<< Exclusive: Whistleblower says NSA revelations mean those with duty to protect confidentiality must urgently upgrade security.

The NSA whistleblower, Edward Snowden, has urged lawyers, journalists, doctors, accountants, priests and others with a duty to protect confidentiality to upgrade security in the wake of the spy surveillance revelations.

HTTP Must Die, Security Experts Tell Hackers

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/http-must-die,news-19188.html

<< HTTP must die, two staffers from the Electronic Frontier Foundation told attendees at the HOPE X hacker conference in here Friday (July 18). Yan Zhu and Parker Higgins argued that there are fewer and fewer reasons why anything should be transmitted across the Internet unencrypted in 2014. But two large reasons still exist: advertising networks and content-delivery networks. >>

About the only line of work I can see actually doing this is some journalists as usually their asses are up for grabs by the content they get a hold of. The others are mostly tied in w/ government at some level or have so many regulations that they're following that they certainly has less time for other things that matter. And priests, the less tech savvy of the whole bunch and privacy doesn't exactly seem to be at the top of their list outside of the bad ones if ya know what I mean.
