Self-encrypting drives: http://www.zdnet.com/the-self-encrypting-drive-you-may-already-own-7000024797/ Who would trust that, knowing that the NSA has subverted the firmware in Western Digital drives? Also, does the "WD Security" software exist for Linux? No? Suspicious. http://support.wd.com/product/download.asp?groupid=223&sid=172&lang=en !crypto !surveillance

DROPOUTJEEP is compliant with the FREEFLOW project, therefore it is supported in the TURBULENCE architecture." http://leaksource.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/nsa-ant-dropoutjeep.jpg How can these people even tell what they're talking about? !surveillance
