- mike_esspe 15y agoI hope, that US can't return in time of "executive order 6102"
- dublinclontarf 15y agoYeah goodluck with that, proving someone has a particular private key. Of course this is all possible but would require the banning of cryptography, and that would take a disciplined dictatorship to pull that off. The cryptography cat is out of the bag, you can't just ban it(sure you can try, but like I said, good luck enforcing it).
