Here is how government-issued QR codes (not only vaccination ones) works in my country: it's just a link to government site. Why reinvent crypto, PKI and all? Also solves updates/invalidation issues.

Massive siberian forests fires became a regular thing about ten years ago. There is a strong suggestion that artificial fires used to cover up large-scale illegal logging. Russia hangs around the top of deforestation charts for quite a few

The irony is: redis and memcached are not great for storing sessions either.

The real irony is that each "crypto bad" thread on HN is clearly someone's paid shill. Because every time it reiterates the same extremely primitive misconceptions about crypto. Surely there are some real useful woke idiots o

This particular document is nothing more but a bunch of a truthful trivialities. I don't see how it can help to manipulate anyone. You should try to feed your inner conspiracy theorist with documents such as Bezmenov interview http:&#
