Hi Zooko,

S4 looks interesting but I have a question: how exactly does it  
disprove PRISM style indiscriminate surveillance? I can understand  
that with client side, pre-Internet, encryption, the data that PRISM  
might suck up is *useless* but I don't see how S4 proves mass,  
indiscriminate surveilance isn't happening.

Forgive me if you've already answered this in your other message but I  
didn't receive it and this message us the first I've seen about the  
service.

Best Regards,
Anthony
