Perhaps it's some kind of homeomorphic encryption scheme. Hey it technically leaves the original message encrypted!

- Filligree 10y agoIfmeaningful homomorphic encryption was an option, then we'd be living in a quite different world.
- sidlls 10y agoVery true. I was just making a tongue-in-cheek conjecture about the justification/rationalization that might be employed.
- sanxiyn 10y agoSurprisingly, homomorphic encryption is now practical enough to run a Kaggle-like data science competition, but without disclosing data. At least one such competition is known to run with real money prize. https://medium.com/@Numerai/encrypted-data-for-efficient-markets-fffbe9743ba8 https://medium.com/@Numerai/encrypted-data-for-efficient-mar...
- foresight 10y agoThis reads like fake smoke and mirrors to trick investors/data providers/participants instead of anything that's real cryptographically.
- spaceheeder 10y agoAs rad as it would be if Google started doing privacy-friendly-ish datamining on user data by homomorphically encrypting it, you and I both know that's not what they're doing. You forgot the `/s`, sadly.
