Basically the question is: who do you want to rely on/trust more, encryption or the justice system?

- cogman10 5y agoThat's a false equivalence. I have more trust in the correctness of encryption than the reliability of the justice system. HOWEVER, that's not what's at issue with crypto. The issue of crypto is that it's irreversible. It absolutely does exactly what you tell it to do, and no more. But, at the same time, that means that when non-algorithm mistakes or exploits (ransom, cons, etc) happen you have 0 recourse to fix it. There's a reason crypto is the preferred method of wealth transmission for scam artists, hackers, and ransomware.
