That's my whole point, you do not help people, you just give the illusion of |
| 2 |
security, as of when you get caught the system does not protect anymore, |
| 3 |
then the very purpose of your supposed protection falls apart. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Most people will think they are safe with encryption as in the contrary, it |
| 6 |
is just asking for investigation and visibility! |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
You expose the user rather than protecting him. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
so what's the point doing an encryption layer? to hide ~/.firefox or |
| 11 |
/etc/init.d/tor ? Do you think you actually help the lil' chinese that |
| 12 |
looks for using TOR? I do not think so at all! Using your software he *will* |
| 13 |
get tortured if he stays silent. Hence he won't use it! |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
It's nice to implement features and I show much respect for that, but you |
| 16 |
need a design in the back, a purpose, something strong and stable that is |
| 17 |
lacking here. Is it worth? How can I break my system? all those questions |
| 18 |
you don't seem to have an answer..as there is. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Add a legal dimension to your design and you're screwed man! |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Or maybe is it the computer hype, anywhere we put some encryption sounds |
| 23 |
sooooo l3333t? |
| 24 |
I do not know but this does *not* make any sense at all! |
| 25 |

but hey that's my 2 cent HO |
