- saurik 1y agoWhich is what the provider themselves have, by definition. The people who run these services are literally sitting next to the box day in and day out... this isn't "provably" anything. You can trust them not to take advantage of the fact that they own the hardware, and you can even claim it makes it ever so slightly harder for them to do so, but this isn't something where the word "provably" is anything other than a lie.
- anon721656321 1y agoyeah, for a moment I was reading it as being a holomorphic encryption type setup, which I think is the only case where you can say 'provably private'. It's better than nothing, I guess... But if you placed the server at the NSA, and said "there is something on here that you really want, it's currently powered on and connected to the network, and the user is accessing it via ssh", it seems relatively straightforward for them to intercept and access.
