Well this is a terrifying idea. Is this a hypothetical or do we know of an instance where such a “key” was invented?

- hda2 5y agoIn around 1900 i think. It's simple for anyone to create an xor "key" for anything.
- Infernal 5y agoI phrased my comment poorly. Do we know of a case where cops or prosecutors have actually faked such a “key”? If so, it’s terrifying that you could have any encrypted data, with cops and their invented xor “keys” claiming your data is whatever they want it to be.
- ArneBab 5y agoOr that you could have unencrypted data, that cops could xor into illegal data. I bet you’re just using those unencrypted images to hide evil stuff with steganography! We found illegal content by xoring our totally not invented xor "keys" with the noise in your JPEGs!
- swebs 5y agoI don't know of any widespread consumer encryption tools that use a one time pad. For comparison, a standard RSA key is 4kb.
