Yes. Good point. Using crypto blindly is just what it takes to make big
mistakes.
You do need to check fingerprints. But OTR gives you nice tools to do
that (OTR 3.2 in particular - OpenSolaris still ships 3.1).
OTR is a tool. As with ALL TOOLS, you need to know a bit what you are
doing with it. :)
But isn't it cool that OpenSolaris ships OUT OF THE BOX with OTR
enabled in Pidgin? :)

With OTR encryption so the conversation remains private?
OTR is vulnerable to man in the middle attacks unless user would check
fingerprint .....
