  • I hear what you’re saying, but think about it this way, should I have to log into my dvd player to watch a movie? There wouldn’t be any added experience. What about 10 years down the line when Sony decides to shut off PSN? Will they take the time to remove the requirement or will they do what they’ve done in the past and just drop support?

    Forcing people to be online and log into shit is just an unnecessary hassle so that they can keep making money off their paying customers. From what I can tell, this does nothing for us. If we just “get over it” then companies will continue to be exploitive. Expressing frustration, especially as a customer is important.

















  • Doesn’t break the algorithm though, you would just have the key and then can use the algorithm (that still works!) to decrypt data.

    Also you’re talking about one class of cryptography, the concept of key knowledge varies between algorithms.

    My point is an attacker having knowledge of the key is a compromise, not a successful break of the algorithm…

    “the attacker beat my ass until I gave them the key”, doesn’t mean people should stop using AES or even RSA, for example.
