<p>Since we have Mike from the guardian, a wordsmith, if I may,
let's carefully note use of words and say that " *security of a
thing* still boils down to trusting people (the implementors)".</p>
Wordsmiths, please, don't perpetuate a nihilism-leaning memes by
loose use of words that somehow hint that cryptography is not
reliable. If there were problems with cryptography, police would not
need, quote, "sophisticated attack and the malware code". And when
was the last time you've heard a phrase "physics still boils down to
trusting GM car breaks"?<br>
