To explain a potential adversary, how crypto works or how he becomes a valueable asset for any given intelligence service without any given payment may not even attract people like…

Key infrastructure doesn't even emit security anymore. The P in PKI is for painful, and I really doubt that some CA, owned by big corporate entity (microsoft, oracle, ca) wouldn't …

Stackexchange is using the same approach to get rid of trolls.

Even if we are hyping or sensationalizing this topic, current behavior is a very good indicator for future behavior.

Since RSA patents expired, it's available, easier to comprehend and good enough until 2020 when the ECC patents expire.

No, but people may be.

See http://fail0verflow.com/blog/2013/megafail.html there are still security concerns.

"Once Panic Mode is on all requests issued by your browser will be forced over SSL" have an E for Effort Google Chrome.

It's a hidden argument, but ymmv.

A picture says more than 1024 words, and its funny, thanks a lot.

Last time I checked Chrome it wasn't possible to remove certificates from the store, has this changed yet?

On consumers I would not expect much change to any other non-us service that keeps you invested and locked-in. There simply are no alternatives, some european services are currentl…

The option that somebody already is self hosting and using secure end to end crypto, it may be wise to add that option; it is not really breaking news to the people with the tin-fo…

I will never, ever, understand why I would like to delegate something so trivial and marginal to a distant server, for example: Todo: change password from XXX to ZZZ. I can imagine…

There may be information leaking (as in fingerprinting) from your device (that you are not aware of) that would allow very easy correlation, like in a mac address or existing sessi…
