New cryptography diagram just dropped.

@johl this is dumb. The assholes added the reporter, he didn't tap their phones.

@ToweroftheArchmage @johl
That's right 👍, it was their dumb attempt to cover their asses, not realizing or simply didn't care how much they were going to be ridiculed by anyone who has a basic surface level understanding how e2e works. 😂 They absolutely deserved to be mucked for this, since they are the biggest security vulnerability themselves. 🤣🤣🤣

@ToweroftheArchmage @johl This is smart. They applied current news to a slightly related concept in a novel way which tickled my funny bone.

@delsehi @johl in an age of disinformation, this furthers the false narrative that some in the administration are pushing, vilifying an innocent reporter.

So no, this isn't smart. It's dangerous and disingenuous.

@ToweroftheArchmage @delsehi I honestly cannot find an example of members of the administration claiming that the reporter tapped phones. Do you have a link?

@ToweroftheArchmage @delsehi Okay, wow. 😯 This is ridiculous as a communication strategy.

@johl @delsehi oh everything about this administration is ridiculous, and it would be laughable how incompetent they are if they weren't also incredibly dangerous, and solidly backed by about a third of the country.

@johl

Don't tell Barthelemy! ( sorry, this is a french comics joke, about a character in the comics "Philemon" that is very niche even among french speaking people. Basically, Barthelemy is an old hermit trying to return to the letter A of Atlantique were he lived for a time with a centaure. It's a weird comics. )

@johl Perhaps the DOD opsec guide to avoid this situation had the word "privilege" in it, and the whole thing got deleted? 🙃

@johl @mjj Stupidity can break any encryption algorithm.

@johl muß da nicht noch irgendwo bruce schneier rein?

@johl saw this too lol
