Used to think the same, actually. But if you look at what obscurity is always used to refer, it's "this ordered system has *so much structure* nobody could ever figure it all out". That's a very different argumentory path than "there is nothing to figure out, they simply mathematically have to know this secret or brute force". _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
