I honestly don't know anything about ripping. I just DL :D
I thought protocols such as https and SSL were made so that... encrypted traffic could be used to prevent prying eyes from sensitive material such as passwords, credit card #s, ect.
What would happen if the best "de-encrypters" were available to the public?
I also, can see this is used for a good think to "trafficking of child pornography"
But you have to think there's Echelon and Tempest....so this is just one of many tools.
If this were ONLY used against pedos, who would not be all for it? However, it will be used against anyone who is under investigation. Who wants all of their computer use exposed and manipulated?
No. There still needs to be a protection of an individual's right to privacy. Otherwise, we'll live in a police state.
Something of interest?
:lol:

You can decrypt a DVD because the keys required are well known, all any dvd ripping s/ware does is apply the key to the file and then dump the results into a new file, nobody is cracking anything. I think most winrar crackers use a brute force attack. From what I understand COFEE is a collection of software bundled on a usb stick that grabs a heap of stuff that might be useful in an investigation and dumps it back on to the stick for use as evidence, I don't think it can break any encryption or passwords.Quote:

COFEE software that helps law enforcement grab data from password protected or encrypted sources is leaking all over the internet. So not only can you steal the software, but break the law by using it too.
