People are pissed off right now. That Snowden thing just isn't going away and people are looking into encrypted email options. Even people who never thought of using pgp (or regarded it as something for paranoid conspiracy theory nuts) would use it now, if it just came as an easy clickable option.
If you're some government agency, that doesn't look desirable. To make things worse, it's a web of trust, one of these pesky decentralized models. Unlike with a central certification authority, trusting one signature doesn't translate into trusting others. But on the other hand, there is no single CA that can be compromised. If you are a government agency in the business of undermining privacy, you would have to attack it one user at a time. Quite frustrating.
What to do about it?

I didn't read TFA, of course.
Just judging from the headline, which I assume is an accurate summary.
- cut out some plywood enclosure for your raspi or arduino.
- try to etch some copper off a pcb while looking at the reflection.
- mount it on a quad copter and shoot around in the neighborhood, then post it on youtube.
- try building a projector and accidentally burn down city hall.
So... how was it that women's brains were "wired" for programming from 1940 to 1985 [1], but suddenly around 1990 they stopped being interested in "coding" and "IT"?

They're Neanderthals, despite the fact that 'tal' is the German word that it's based on.
Thal is the older German spelling of Tal, meaning valley. Both are pronounced the same, with t not th. It simply means Neander valley. The Valley is now called Neandertal, but my uncle kept his original name.
