#TFW i realise that literally people are using cryptography without understanding how it actually works, and that i have a teaching opportunity nobody's going to listen to me tho, but they will hear it and it will ring around in their brains until they do understand it some already do, and they will be smiling silently those who don't, are gonna be like "wtf mleku why are you yelling at people again?" because they don't understand cryptography, as it is implemented, in the systems that these people are building nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakj7qgmwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8wetnw3jhymnzw33jucm0d5hszymhwden5te0wahhgtn4w3ux7tn0dejj7qg3waehxw309ucngvpwvcmh5tnfduhszymhwden5te0v9ehgunpdshxu6twdfsj7qgcwaehxw309a3hyetpw3ezumn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzpmhxue69uhk2tnwdaejumr0dshsz9mhwden5te0v96xcctn9ehx7um5wghxcctwvshsz9nhwden5te0vfjhvmewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9uqzqwlsccluhy6xxsr6l9a9uhhxf75g85g8a709tprjcn4e42h053vacuhy2z understands cryptography also, as does hodlbod but very obviously few others do
it's just simple and basic engineering fundamental to this protocol the people understand the damn signatures, ok, great, that's great, they are one step further ahead of the expectations that bluesky and farcaster expects of their DEVELOPERS but y'alls need to understand actual cryptography before you tell me why it's bad to decrypt data in an app THERE IS NO PLAINTEXT ATTACK FFS
just, "THERE IS NO PLAINTEXT ATTACK" should be enough to get people on the right track
failing to actually do your research before making clear accusations aganst someone is clear predatory or predator adjacent (ghoul) behaviour
