qwerty,

Pedos are just an excuse, it’s about everyone else.

qwerty,

A gui app that lets you:

  • symmetrically encrypt and decrypt text and files with AES-256 and without any weird formating that would make it incompatible with openssl.
  • generate (without writing to file) RSA-(2048-4096) keys and asymmetrically encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify text and files.

It should be simple without any advanced options or storing any data or credentials or saving anything without asking the user. For example;

For symmetric text:

  • 3 text boxes, 1 for input, 1 for output, 1 for password, encrypt/decrypt radio, 1 button.

For symmetric file:

  • file picker, 1 password text box, encrypt/decrypt radio, 1 button

For asymmetric generation:

  • 2 text boxes, 1 for priv key, 1 for pub key, 1 button.

For asymmetric text:

  • 3 text boxes, 1 for input, 1 for output, 1 for priv/pub key, encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify radio, 1 button

For asymmetric file:

  • file picker, 1 priv/pub key text box, encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify radio, 1 button
qwerty,

What’s the difference between a useless cryptographic token and a useless piece of paper if there are people willing to give me things I want for either?

qwerty,

I use crypto to privately pay for my VPN, phone bill, to donate to foss projects. I sold some digital items online for crypto. I use it because it’s faster, more private (if done correctly) and convenient than using a credit card or bank transfer. No one can seize, freeze, or control my crypto. I can donate, pay or get paid on my own terms with no middle man. If visa, mastercard, banks or fintech companies generate value then so does crypto.

qwerty,

That’s just not true. Monero, litecoin, bch… transactions cost less than a penny. No one uses bitcoin for illegal things anymore (it’s tracable and forever on the blockchain, people use monero instead) but if they were wouldn’t that mean bitcoin is useful for exchanging goods?

I use crypto for a bunch of legitimate things like paying for my VPN, phone bill, donating to foss projects etc.

I use it because it’s more private, faster and more convenient for me. I can always have it with me, use it from any place, any time, for anything I want with no hidden fees and no one can seize, freeze, track or control my money. If you think that thoes things are valueable only to criminals you must have lived under some 1st world rock for a while.
