It seems to me they're putting an additional layer of stuff ("OTP") between the key generation and the actual encoding, so what's the problem with that, as a concept?
Well for a start it`s not a one time pad because that requires a totally real random pad. They have a stream cipher, as for whether it is any good or not I would normally not trust a man with the talent for bullshit Don Wood has.
I suppose Paul doesn't consider his own ruminations about "brute force attacks against one-time pads" to be "bullshit". --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
