If I am connected to the Internet via a SLIP/PPP connection and I type my passphrase while being online (for example, in Private Idaho, after getting my mail), could that passphrase be compromised? If so, how would that be done?
:Paranoid yet? Good. That's a healthy state to be in. Fortunately, :most developers (like Joel) don't put any such evil hooks into :their software. Having access to the source, to be able to read :through it yourself, is IMO one of the better ways to be sure about :such things. Reading the source and recompiling it yourself is :probably the best. :Still paranoid? Excellent. Paranoia!! I love that word :)...What about somebody snooping on my phoneline, while I type the passphrase? :) Harka -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQEVAwUBMucbDzltEBIEF0MBAQH/Wwf8DeH6rBzczDPjc00sEAV649EHmZu3Fm5W QCIbtRT9+NWHb4jHmbB5jBkUpkswBDwbisQoZ/XKKhCKeMHbUKWApWiq9jPuvg9w aSsal+8uqVyHLnKEiq1xqjih7rurwRC3qsWWq6Mr7XDgICzfh4XonKgp7ln6LuQj HKk+ewTNND+7WDYGQFAz6VkGzELSjKuPgNRv614IwyC0VXDHH/DJRaEOnBUYa9e2 FfcHUyZANWuHVscHwDCPKIVy+tR8UzsYhhwrIOf1e2KZhTfRMLiP/Tqaaup/C0Nr r5Bjp76e5VPtQ4GsdhrzQT9wjaV2apWq4eDRvkLMq8fVSkV/+ZaTKg== =qEst -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
