Ah. Now I understand, you never read the quotes that I was linking. That's not the sentiments of the person that claimed to train shapeshift. They were saying security by nature is insecure. They were saying don't check my work, thats just how things are. They said it in a way that Satoshi or Szabo NEVER would. They made me believe they actually did work for shapshift, and they made me believe they are the security leak.
Are you sure we are disagreeing here?
i read the quotes..
but you are reading it as if they purposefully left holes open.
i read it is morally being honest to say
"Even if you use the most secure hardware and the most secure software in the world, it's still possible to write your password on a sticky note and stick it on your monitor. "
no matter what you can do, there will ALWAYS be a hole someone will find. its just takes time, effort and expense to find/use that hole.
secure never means 100% fool proof. so atleast having the morals and guts to admit it, will keep you on your toes to keep trying to patch the holes.
you can have the most secure server on this planet. but if do some one was to contact the IT admin and pretend to be the CEO suggesting to do something. then even with the most secure hardware, falls flat due to human error.
accepting that there will always be a hole somewhere helps people to always be on the look out for the holes to reduce the chances of exploiting it by bad people.
for instance. Segwit is not even released. and yet there are some blind fan boys that are already calling it bug free perfection.... mindsets like that are the worse thing ever.
nothing on this planet EVER is 100% guaranteed
secure does not mean 100% guaranteed, it never has
i think you hoped that secure meant 100% guaranteed, and have been blindly believing that anyone saying something is not 100%, must be bad. when infact admitting the truth and being honest is good.
so from this day forward. please i beg of you. stop blindly believing that everything is a uptopian dream of perfection and that when things go wrong it should be treated as a surprise and have guilt thrown at those involved. but to instead realise that nothing is ever perfect and find a new solution to the latest problem and accept there will be another problem in the future and it is just a matter of time before someone finds it, hoping the person that finds it is a whitehat/staff rather than a blackhat/outsider
