The best way to keep your emails out of the NSA's sights may be to have them never cross over US soil. For many residents of Germany, that'll now be easy to ensure. One of Germany's leading communication companies, Deutsche Telekom, announced a new initiative on Friday to keep domestic emails safe and secure. Under the new plan, called "E-mail made in Germany," all messages going directly between three German email services — GMX, T-Online, and web.de — will never leave local servers. They'll also be encrypted, and users of those services will see a notice when they're composing an email to tell them whether or not the recipient's email falls under the program's protections.
