This is interesting and I am looking forward to signing up! I am wondering if the Military affiliation of one of the founders will cause hesitation. I am a founder who has a military background, not nearly as long and impressive as CDR Hyder, however we currently do not have any public products in the security market. Does anyone think such an affiliation may cause issues with certain users?

What kinds of issues do you mean?

If it is not open-sourced, one can be sure that it has a backdoor for governmental agencies
