[liberationtech] beta - TERC - iphone blur/secure-cam

[sam de silva]

Hi Collin and Brian,

Thanks for your messages.

Regarding the support site, it's been online in the past, and I've taken it offline to do some further work on it. Poor timing on my behalf… 

The code will be shared - it's just been a slow process, the budget was tiny, but no excuses.

Hipster filters? Maybe next version :-)

Will send out another msg to this group once the support site is live. 

Best, Sam.

The estimated 26 days until the launch of Secure Journalist is a bit of a long wait. In the interim, is there some material you could share with libtech about the specifications? For example, I presume "a secure FTP protocol" is SFTP, but you never know what some people try ...

It's a parallel of sorts to the Guardian Project's ObscuraCam - though ObscuraCam offers more features/options to the user ...
