Google announced last night that it has upped its email security measures following last summers revelations, a not-too-subtle reference to Edward Snowdens massive NSA document leak. Gmail Security Engineering Lead Nicolas Lidzborski wrote in a blog post that Your email is important to you, and making sure it stays safe and always available is important to us. He continued: Starting today, Gmail will always use an encrypted HTTPS connection when you check or send email. Gmail has supported HTTPS since the day it launched, and in 2010 we made HTTPS the default.
