Preliminary calculations show that it would take decades to break this cryptographic separation [between a subscriber account and its associated network traffic]

The unnecessary rubbishing of Android VPNs seemed like one red flag in there. Is that another one? It seems both unlikely given the kind of traffic analysis that could be brought to bear, and very unimpressive that the hypothetical time to break it is measured only in decades rather than the multiples of the age of the universe that seem more normal when discussing things that are meant to be cryptographically secure.

But it would nonetheless be interesting, if Google hadn’t shut it down last year as seems to be the case far as I can tell.

Cryptography

Create post

cryptography (noun). The discipline concerned with communication security (eg, confidentiality of messages, integrity of messages, sender authentication, non-repudiation of messages, and many other related issues), regardless of the used medium such as pencil and paper or computers.

This community is for links about and discussion of cryptography specifically. For privacy technology more generally, use !privacy.

This community is explicitly not about cryptocurrency; see !crypto for that.
