Do love a good open protocol!
Recently listened to this podcast on the WhatsApp’s key transparency system. I started to consider a few things.
First, how the field of cryptography is endlessly fascinating and does serve to create systems that feel a bit like magic.
Second, centralizing management and agency just breeds complexity. And at the scale of WhatsApp it just mind boggling.
#nostr of course pushes this management complexity to the edge of the graph where I currently feel it’s best.
However I do recognize this as a potential blocker for larger adoption. If a multi billion dollar project like WhatsApp does this what does it say about the populous and their desire for control?
Also good grief with their “distributed validation” 🙄
