&gt;Le Roux admitted that he had created the encryption software E4M but denied that he had developed TrueCrypt, its famous progeny.<p>To me the picture that is being painted is that Truecrypt was a project funded by criminals and maintained by people associated with organised crime.<p>Yet we still don&#x27;t know what happened in 2014 that ended the project and the circumstances in how they &#x27;gassed&#x27; their canary. Was it something to do with Le Roux&#x27;s informing? Was it connected to the Snowden revelations?
