This project is on the very early stages of development. On same rare occasions it might tele-transport your computer to event horizon. Also, this version only supports the English language, sorry :(

Email is not a very private method of communication.

There has been several attempts to make email more secure such as using end-to-end encryption. Some technologies, such as GPG do provide great security. But this and other methods of encryption have failed to gather traction. Without being popular, the system is not very effective since it requires all parties involved in communication to have a special setup. Also, many of the current solutions are hard to setup and configure for many users. Nothing to Hide tries a radically different approach to securing email.

Nothing to Hide attempts to make email more secure by making messages more vague, in such a way that the intended recipient can still understand the message but snoopers can't. In it's current form it only available as Google Chrome and Chromium add-on for Gmail. A Firefox version of the add-on is on the works.

First install our Chrome extension. Also, you need the following installed:

• Java (Only tested with Java 7 and higher)
• Python (Only tested with Python 2.7.x and higher)
• pip (Only tested with 1.4.x and higher) How to install pip on Windows and Mac OS X. Ubuntu users run sudo apt-get install python-pip.

The automated method has only been tested in GNU/Linux and Mac OS X. It should work for other Unix operating systems. Windows users have to use the manual method.

If you're using curl type the following command:

curl -L https://raw.github.com/climatewarrior/nothing-to-hide/master/utils/installer.sh | bash

If you're using wget type:

wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/climatewarrior/nothing-to-hide/master/utils/installer.sh -O - | bash
