Cryptographers are easy meat for lions.
Care to place a long-standing bet on that? 20yrs or so? We can find a solid reasonable middleman here surely?
They very much do care. I'm willing to bet on it becoming public knowledge within that timeframe. Keen?
- saagarjha 7y agoHow is the CIA going to stop you from downloading libsodium and doing whatever you want with it?
- A2017U1 7y agoThat was most certainly not the point made here. Go contribute to libsodium, go contribute to any reasonably well used crypto library, you've now got a big red dot on your back from an assortment of governments in perpetual conflict. I truly worry for anyone participating in these open source codebases and not being aware of how much they are targets. Take care of yourselves friends. Please.
- icebraining 7y ago> I truly worry for anyone participating in these open source codebases and not being aware of how much they are targets. So when you extorted people to play with other's crypto codebases in the previous post, were you trying to make them into targets?
- JetezLeLogin 7y agoExhorted, you probably meant!
- icebraining 7y agoYeah, thanks.
- misterdoubt 7y agoHuh?
- tabletopneedle 7y agoThis reminds me of the Niemöller's poem. IIRC it went something like First they came for the A2017U1s, or they would have, except he never opposed the wrongdoing.
