A question and a probe.
Question. Is it possible to have code that contains a private encryption
key safely? Every way I look at it the answer seems no, yet some degree of
safety might be possible by splitting an encrypting routine across several
nodes. Can someone give me a pointer to any work in this area?
Probe. Digital cash/gold, java, anonymous transactions, freenet : if at
least 3 of those are of keen interest to you and you have a little spare
time, I'd like to hear from you.
cya, Andrew...
