The launch of not one, but two, "Black phones"
this past week may lead people to think that secure cell phones are a hot new item.
Hot, yes. New, no. Many other secure smartphones, not to mention a plethora of apps, have existed for years. Mostly, these phones have been sold to governments and have commanded high prices. Now, as the demand heats up, prices are dropping.
Want a government-level secure, encrypted smartphone at a reduced price? (You know you do. Even if only to attract attention.)
Cryptophone™ today announced. "...special prices on the first two phones of any order placed this week." (more)
