Cryptographers are easy meat for lions.
Care to place a long-standing bet on that? 20yrs or so? We can find a solid reasonable middleman here surely?
They very much do care. I'm willing to bet on it becoming public knowledge within that timeframe. Keen?
Go contribute to libsodium, go contribute to any reasonably well used crypto library, you've now got a big red dot on your back from an assortment of governments in perpetual conflict.
I truly worry for anyone participating in these open source codebases and not being aware of how much they are targets.
Take care of yourselves friends. Please.
So when you extorted people to play with other's crypto codebases in the previous post, were you trying to make them into targets?
First they came for the A2017U1s, or they would have, except he never opposed the wrongdoing.
Nobody is saying not to learn and play. They're saying don't set off a rocket while staring down the engine. The reason why it has to be said is that the consequences of doing so when writing crypto are not so impressively immediate or dramatic, but just as devastating to the outcome (and maybe cryptographer, depending on adversary).

The CIA does not care if you play with libsodium.
