- rakoo 2y agoGoing from "AES is safe" to "Any protocol that uses AES is safe" is the kind of leap that will ban you from any cryptography work
- vetinari 2y agoGP was talking encryption, not protocol. Randomly changing topics will get you banned from any crypto work too.
- rakoo 2y agoBecause saying "AES" is enough to talk about encryption ? Nothing else is involved ? Because if we're going in this direction everyone should just use XORs for encrypting and everything would be fine, and the rest would be implementation details.
