The email service Edward Snowden reportedly used, has shuttered abruptly. Ladar Levison, its owner and operator, writes:. I have been forced to make a difficult decision: to become complicit in crimes against the American people or walk away from nearly ten years of hard work by shutting down Lavabit. After significant soul searching, I have decided to suspend operations. I wish that I could legally share with you the events that led to my decision. I cannot.
