The EFF has put out a new chart showing which companies now encrypt, and what they encrypt post Snowden.

Google and Drop box look like they do end to end encryption now. Some of the others have a ways to go.

AT&T and VZ do not appear to encrypt anything, of course they were the ones accused of just funneling everything to the NSA for a tidy fee...
 
I generally like the EFF, but I think that they shouldn't be giving a green check mark to feature that is either "planned" or happening in 2014.

Recognizing that some of these steps will take time to implement, we gave credit to companies that either (1) have implemented or (2) have concrete plans to implement the listed encryption process, as noted.

For those that gloss over the details, they will see the green and think that data is encrypted when it isn't at this point in time.
