- tptacek 8y agoYou can simply run your own. The protocol doesn't rely on the servers for security.
- kingofhdds 8y agoRunning my own server for occasional file transfer is when it becomes even smarter alternative to PGP, isn't it?
- helper 8y agoIts not hardcoded, its just the default server. You can specify your own via a cli flag.
- kingofhdds 8y agoFlag won't make it better. If user needs to run own server, it kills the only advantage in comparison with PGP - relative simplicity.
- tptacek 8y agoNo, angry commenter, that is not the only advantage Magic Wormhole has over PGP.
- kingofhdds 8y agoPlease, don't try to interpret my mood, it can quickly make it childish. Feel free to argue over other advantages you believe it has.
