To be honest, this is might be the least satisfying game of bingo ever--but let's play anyway. The rules are simple: draw a grid, label the columns for different platforms, and label the rows for important communication toolsets. In each cell, put the name of an open source software package with reasonable security properties. If this exercise doesn't make you break down in tears, then you have won.

I put cells in parenthesis whenever I felt that the cell contents were egregiously doubtful. This could be for any number of reasons:
- * *Not ready*: Some software shows promise, but there is not really any code that is ready to be used. For example, Syncany and git-annex.
- * *Security problems*: Some software has notable security problems. Mumble, for example, only supports variable bit-rate encoding and is thus not suited to prevent eavesdropping by a skilled adversary.
- * *Hostile to users*: Much of the available software exemplifies a painful user experience. For example, Jitsi, OpenVPN, or OpenPGP.

What is missing might be more revealing than what is listed. These toolsets are entirely absent from my 'security bingo' game card:
* *Social Networking:* When I excluded software that I think is unfeasible (SecureShare) or has no security (Diaspora, etc), then you end up with zero projects.
- * *Document Collaboration:* I have high hopes an encrypted etherpad, but so far no one has started work on it.
