And to top it off, point 1 and the two dangers mentioned are more than enough. There’s no need to create an exhaustive list.\n4 - You dismiss a scenario as “pedantic” while simultaneously telling me you agree with me. Why the contradiction? Do you have any idea how much weight that word “guaranteed” carries? Take point 1, for example.\n5 - You made a good point about zero trust, but I have a fundamental question for you: will an audit save the life of someone being hunted, like I mentioned earlier?\n\n@byesun :\n\nYou interpret it as “panic,” but it isn’t, and it isn’t “pedantic” either. So, you’re basically proving my point—are you even aware of that? And it’s not just about what you’re saying; it applies across the board: → Privacy ← “result: guaranteed.” If there’s even the slightest security flaw while that word “guaranteed” is being thrown around, the hunted person dies trusting the tool, despite having decent OpSec. Is the company liable? The answer is yes, and the family would have every right to sue the company for false and unethical advertising. Do you get now just how heavy that word is? I invite you to play detective, to connect the dots and dig deep. Don’t just settle for the surface level—dig into the depths, and if you keep learning, you’ll understand way more than what it literally means.\n\n* * *\n\nA little invitation for you both: if you didn’t already know, look up a bit of history on Edward Snowden and the Lavabit email service.\n\nMy intention is simple: to protect people who lack knowledge and don’t know how to defend themselves, by demonstrating in just a few words that Nym’s company must be honest and remove the word “guaranteed” if it is truly honest.",
