On: U.S. Secretly Obtains Two Months of A.P. Phone Records

[guelo]

As far as we know the government only obtained records of the timestamps and endpoints of the communication, not the content. Encryption wouldn't help there, you need something like Tor. But the problem is that in order to setup a comm channel over Tor you would have to communicate over an insecure channel to set it up. Any idea of what could be the solution for a news org?

I said secure, not encrypted, for that reason.

This isn't a problem that needs one solution, but multiple, layered ones. Communication should be disposable and deniable.
