Most don't even work on software to begin with. What's your point? > WhatsApp build crypto system that is successfully adopted by billions of > users without technical knowledge. Did you really set the bar _that_ low? Forgetting for a moment that Whatsapp is proprietary and there's no way to actually audit the code... We already know that governments have been pushing https://archive.is/suDJS for ways to decrypt it directly and that they can in fact read messages via a central authority/server https://archive.is/2TXqU when the receiving user of a message is offline. If you consider deliberately breaking E2E encryption by design a "success" then yes, our views _strongly_ differ on not just what's successful, but also what's acceptable. But go ahead, please rationalize why "ease-of-use" is more important than actual security for power-users such as myself and those who absolutely won't compromise on true E2EE. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
