The term "open source" was missing from the article. I'm curious if any of
the other projects mentioned are open source like Indie Box, other than
Diaspora.

The mention of NDAs by the Wickr founder makes it a non-starter. Their web
site doesn't have any download link for the source files, nor mention of
open source, but they do mention patent pending technology. How do they
expect anyone to trust closed source, proprietary technology to be secure?
