Ask HN: Old online fiction story on superman/crypto/PGP?
Prob 15y ago or so I read a "story" online about cryptography and how to use pgp and similar tools.
It was half a tech howto, half a fiction story about superman, with a bad guy using crypto to defeat the superhero.
I don't seem to be able to find it anymore, does anyone remember this or anything similar?
- dvdhnt 7y agoMaybe this (has mentions of Superman in the comments)? http://ask-leo.com/what_does_begin_pgp_signed_message_mean.html http://ask-leo.com/what_does_begin_pgp_signed_message_mean.h...
- ecesena 7y agoEhm, no... but thank you. It was more of a longer story, with several fiction chapters interleaved by how-tos. The title was something like kryptonite, but I don't remember if it was spelled the "superman" way or like crypto...
