      I encrypt all of my files by changing every bit to 0. No one has decrypted it yet.

        Unbreakable Encryption … so … Snake Oil then?

            Well, if its unbreakable, then its either snake oil, or some variation on the one-time-pad (really depends on your definition of unbreakable).

            But having read the article, this is definetly snake oil.

              This sounds like an ad.

              Note that “patented” doesn’t mean shit.

              Plus it’s not as unique as they make out to be:

              I personally wouldn’t use an encryption where someone else could change the conditions on how I use it anyway.

                The brothers have different surnames due to an error made by their parents when registering Lin’s birth certificate

                I wonder how long it took them to discover the error… And how long it took them to decide to just live with it instead of fixing it. Interesting.

                    Here is how they do it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xor_encryption

                        that’s not true

                            That was a joke FFS. XOR is literally an unbreakable encryption method. Don’t you know the basics?

                                Edit: funny to see someone unaware of the woooosh and everyone choosing his side. The irony… 👌
