SSL is now available
by trixter on May.05, 2010, under site specific
In a form of protest I have enabled SSL for this site. While I do not expect anything particularly secret to happen here, and everything available encrypted is also available cleartext. I am just trying to encrypt everything that I do online. This is more of a political statement. The government appears to be increasing its reach and scope into the internet and I wanted to generate as many packets they cant monitor, even if they are not trying to monitor me specifically.
The way the math works, if everyone on the planet used 40 bit encryption the government could not monitor everyone all the time. Anyone they opted to monitor they could decrypt with near instant results, but they would not be able to do that to everyone all the time. I am trying to use much more than 40 bit.
