        Nah, just a guy that read the entire comment tree.

        While I agree with you that there’s a very very high likelihood of the conversation being recorded in some form or another and likely through a side channel, I feel that your “my sweet child… do you not think the NSA can break encryption” comment to be both condescending to the person you replied to, and hypocritical to the comment I replied to.

        Neither you nor I are cryptographers. We can’t attest to the security or lack thereof of published cryptographic algorithms.

          Your last sentence is true. It is also true that members of the NSA are cryptographers, and plenty good at it too.

            You can’t just be a good cryptographer to break a sound encryption. It doesn’t work that way. You’re basically saying you know p=np which is… I’ll just say bold
