For those #privacy advocates out there, here's a stark reminder about how important it is that the solutions be #OpenSource and you be able to compile and run the code yourself.

The latest news in this story is that the confidential source who first created the phone company and provided it to the FBI is going to be publicly identified in court documents. Considering they contributed to the downfall of multiple large operations (e.g. $1 billion/year drug cartels), this is going to put them in grave danger.

Side note: 404media articles only cost you giving out an email address, but this crew is real, independent, investigative journalism and I think they're worth supporting.
