But in real life, you can proceed if the fingerprint's invalid - you just get owned. If we stop the test subject from proceeding when the fingerprint's invalid, I'm not sure we're reproducing the real life incentive to "just hit OK so I can get on with what I'm doing". Perhaps we should instruct the subject to check the fingerprint, but let them proceed regardless of whether they actually check it. That seems fairly close to what we're asking people to do in real life. :-/ Cheers, Michael -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJTo/Z9AAoJEBEET9GfxSfM9YYH/2eze1UrxcbhgkN0wyqm6uVc iwuU4wINZHUnRqJex3jvOMN9qNuxwjAiI7kY6k98n8t0G0SpbFofz/itiJiL8mmx 3KVb7nHC/u88aGsR6U38AwpSAd9yiAzA8um1S9UfTw4V7ez/DhP9HHMSH9i88rM7 QiG83WFxwzP5Hf2Ay+5M1TdKGLP4K30XJg5lbwcO7CHXU2jtoNIJQHZOqH2qf80o Ehn5ypA0Q2Qqjt4skj/QBloQ/VmsbyR3QgIPznSb4oiwDHb+hHQu/4MmHzBfHu2K LGIOCcKtrvObYxrATXaOdw7TzHilyITdERJZkKn9hAGWGHpfhSKbdLpUTbfukPo= =oSYD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Messaging mailing list [email protected] https://moderncrypto.org/mailman/listinfo/messaging
