Yep. In cryptography there was a moment when cryptographers realized that the key must be secret, the message should be secret, but the rest of the system can not be secret. For the social purpose of refining said system. EDIT: And that these must be separate entities.

These guys basically use lots of data instead of algorithms. Like buying something with oil money instead of money made on construction.

I just want to see the moment when it all bursts. I'll be so gleeful. I'll go and buy an IPA and will laugh in every place in the Internet I'll see this discussed.
