Life is very different at $50M v $250M
That’s not how TDP works.
I personally am sick and tired of these trust and safety people thinking they’re the most important people at the company.

Consider looking into Shamir’s Secret Sharing Scheme.

I am toying with starting an online service/company where users would elect a backup group where M of N people in the group can unlock the secrets. Use case would be secrets, passwords, Trusts, Instructions.

This issue confronted me when we put our living trust docs in our safe bit didn’t have a good way for our executor to get into the safe.

Would any of you use this service? Secure s3/Dropbox with SSSS access. Secure online safety deposit box with multiparty encryption.

Re:Was MPLS Necessary? on Monday September 26, 2022 @11:23PM (#32991248)

In the late 90s it was ATM and Frame Relay v MPLS.

rough consensus and running code culminates to standards.

But none of its necessary.

Hell, yeah.
