> then why dont you just encrypt everything? What would be wrong with that?
In order for nepomuk and plasma active to work, the encrypted stuff would need to be mounted on boot - not everything is private, no need to encrypt everything - no way to enter the password on a touch device before x starts, leading to a lot of complications - if it is mounted on boot, all data is accessible to all programs that are running and all users of the device (not covering all the use-cases PA wants to cover, including a theft of an already running device) Encrypted folders are mounted *only* when the user is in a private activity, and is encrypted using the password that is activity-specific. -- Cheerio, Ivan -- While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words Dying to believe in what you heard I was staring straight into the shining sun _______________________________________________ Nepomuk mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/nepomuk
