Lavabit
Lavabit is a discontinued encrypted webmail service, founded in 2004. The service suspended its operations on August 8, 2013 after US government ordered it to turn over its Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) private keys. Lavabit is owned and operated by Ladar Levison.〔〔〔(Edward Snowden’s E-Mail Provider Defied FBI Demands to Turn Over Crypto Keys, Documents Show ). ''Wired''〕
==History==
Lavabit was founded by Texas-based programmers who formed Nerdshack LLC, renamed Lavabit LLC the next year, who cited privacy concerns about Gmail, Google's free, widely used email service, and their use of the content of users' email to generate advertisements and marketing data.〔 Lavabit is a third person future of the word "to wash" in Latin, it means "he/she/it will wash"(Lavabit High Scalability Writeup )〕 Lavabit offered significant privacy protection for their users' email, including asymmetric encryption. The strength of the cryptographic methods used was of a level that is presumed impossible for even intelligence agencies to crack. In August 2013, Lavabit had about 410,000 users and offered free and paid accounts with levels of storage ranging from 128 megabytes to 8 gigabytes.〔(Lavabit chief predicts 'long fight' with feds ) CNET, August 9, 2013. Retrieved August 13, 2013.〕 In January 2011, Lavabit had launched a shared web hosting service.
Before the Snowden incident, Lavabit had complied with previous search warrants. For example, in June 2013 a search warrant was executed against a Lavabit account for suspected possession of child pornography.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.docketalarm.com/cases/Maryland_District_Court/1--13-mj-00607/In_the_Matter_of_the_Search_of--_Lavabit_LLC_Email_Account_for_Joey006%40lavabit.com/ )〕
