"NOTE: THIS IS A PROOF OF CONCEPT. DO NOT USE FOR REAL SECRETS"
Other than being a proof of concept, what is the real problem on using this for "real secrets?" Are there plans to take it our of proof of concept to something usable then? I see your myLock carries the same disclaimer, what is the point then?

- diafygi 12y agoI don't really expect these projects to get used widely. They serve more as inspiration to show that client-side encryption doesn't have to be cumbersome for the casual user. It would be great if webapp developers started baking client-side encryption into their apps.
- lawnchair_larry 12y agoActually this would not be great. It's kind of an unsolved problem. There is no way to do it safely.
- diafygi 12y agoSo we should just give up then?
