Some people, maybe a lot of people
want to take encryption seriously.
So, get some little open source,
command line programs that run
and just squirt out dirt simple
flat ASCII files in base 64 encoding.
Run the software on some old
computer where are fairly sure
there are no back doors.
Never connect to computer to
a network.
Move the data from that computer
on, say, just old diskettes.
Then somehow have an iPhone
read the base 64 and send it.
If the FBI gets the base 64 code,
lots of luck making any sense out of
it.
Some people will be impressed by that
scenario and possibility.
- eru 11y agoHow many is `some'?
- graycat 11y agoShould be everyone with first level programming skills and very interested in solid data security. That's a lot of people, millions. Maybe they just need to be reminded that they can do it themselves, easily, with no dependence on Apple, Microsoft, the Internet standards and no risk of backdoors, etc.
