Critics bash the EFF Secure Messaging Scorecard

(Daily Dot): http://www.dailydot.com/politics/eff-secure-messaging-scorecard-critics/

   "The EFF scorecard gives Skype two check marks for being encrypted in
    transit and encrypted so the provider can't read it.  That was a hard
    sell for many privacy advocates, who immediately pointed to reports
    from the Edward Snowden, leaks saying the National Security Agency
    (NSA) had tripled the amount of Skype video calls being collected
    through Prism."
