Just in case you don't know, tptacek is a world-class security/cryptography expert who happens to hang around and share his wisdom here. You appear to be assuming he's someone thinking one or more levels lower than you. I think it would be smarter for you to assume that he fully understands your argument but is thinking one or more levels higher than you.
- jamesdwilson 11y agoagreed, i had no idea. i am humbled.
- tptacek 11y agoWhat's worse is that I am nowhere close to the best crypto security person on HN, and (unlike me) the best crypto people here don't brag about it.
- ComodoHacker 11y agoCould you share some links about Snowden & Cryptocat story you mentioned above?
- wglb 11y agoHere is one reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocat. Additional googling will show more.
- ComodoHacker 11y agoWell I asked because googling showed me very little. Basically Greenwald and Snowden used Cryptocat during some online interview.
- tptacek 11y agoIs there something more you're looking for?
