+ <h2>Press release: GnuPG encryption project launches crowdfunding
+ campaign</h2>
+ <h5>Posted 19th December 2013 by Sam Tuke</h5>
+
+
+ <p>Today GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) has launched its first
+ <a href="http://goteo.org/project/gnupg-new-website-and-infrastructure"
+ >crowdfunding campaign</a> with the aim of building a new
+ website and long term infrastructure. The 24.000 EUR target will
+ fund:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Fresh web interfaces for gnupg.org including mobile</li>
+ <li>Completion and release of GnuPG 2.1</li>
+ <li>Anonymous Tor network access to the website</li>
+ <li>A new user friendly download page suitable for all devices</li>
+ <li>A new server for web services</li>
+ <li>New pages convening external guides, videos, and handbooks</li>
+ <li>Facilities for processing recurring donations for long
+ term project support</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>Project founder and Lead Developer Werner Koch said “GnuPG has
+ seen a huge upsurge in popularity following recent state
+ spying revelations. After 16 years of continuous development,
+ we are now asking for community support to capitalise on
+ consumer demand for privacy, and make GnuPG easy to access for
+ mainstream audiences”.</p>
+
+ <p>GnuPG is one of the few tools remaining above suspicion in the
+ wake of leaked NSA documents. Edward Snowden and his contacts
+ including Bruce Schneier switched to GnuPG when they began handling
+ the secret
+ documents <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/05/nsa-how-to-remain-secure-surveillance">earlier this year</a>. The Wall Street Journal, The
+ Committee to Protect Journalists, and ProPublica have all embraced
+ GnuPG for protection of staff and sources. Phil Zimmerman, original
+ inventor of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), has also moved to GnuPG in
+ wake of the news.</p>
+
+ <p>“GnuPG is a key part of modern privacy infrastructure” said
+ Sam Tuke, Campaign Manager, GnuPG. “Millions of users rely on
+ GnuPG to work securely on servers, laptops and smartphones,
+ but 2013 donations totaling 3.000 EUR to date have not even
+ covered fixed costs. Supporting new algorithms like elliptical
+ curve and fixing newfound exploits fast takes a lot of work
+ which is done voluntarily. Now is the time for people to
+ contribute to making GnuPG slick and more sustainable in
+ future”.</p>
+
+ <p>Jacob Appelbaum, Tor Project developer, added “GnuPG is
+ important - it allows us the assurances we need to do our
+ work. Community funding is a critical part of a confident
+ outlook for GnuPG in future.”</p>
