Those are the words you put in my mouth. I don't trust MTProto 2. When did I say that I trusted MTProto 2?
This whole argument was me putting bad research to shame and then challenging another user not you to develop their argument.
But you wanted to back them up with something about concentrated efforts from serious adversaries which is an impossible argument to refute because neither of us has the insider knowledge to know what these protocols have endured and survived since only knowledge of their successful exploitation would be on the menu for public consumption.
So please, do bring something of greater meat to the table if you have something to share.
- zepto 6y ago“...why using standard crypto primitives isn't enough” Enough for what? Sure looks like an assertion of trust. Note that I’m not saying it isn’t trustworthy, just that your argument that using standard primitives is enough, is not a reason to trust it.
