RE: NSA snooping. 'Told ya so'..

[Phillip McCleod]

4. then what you really said is 'no, i did not read it, phil'..

..because the point of the post is protecting yourself, and the refusal to learn how to do so. if you know how, then i really don't know why you chose to snark. so far you have nothing.

here's a fact. if i encrypt some files or an email using a sufficiently large key, and a robust algorithm, the NSA will *never* in a bazillion years crack that motherfucker. not ever. slap a 4096 bit key on something and forget the password? neither will anyone else, including you.

it's math, not whatever paranoid fantasy you're spinning. try it. i have and therefore.. you got jack shit.

believe me, if i chose to, i could encrypt some plaintext in a way that nobody could ever crack it without cracking me. that's why some states are passing laws to make it an additional felony to withhold an encrypted drive.

can't be done. can't crack some codes.
