Re: Timed-Release Crypto

I guess this might work, but now you have to be more specific in telling your escrow service where to look for public keys to decode you message. With just a few standard time-key servers, this isn't needed, and perhaps we could all share the costs of monitoring their trustworthyness. Needing just a few, the need might easily be met by charity.

Considering what we've currently had to rely on, charity seems like as good a place to start as any. Perhaps when escrow clients operate like wais in conducting a search of the available sources, and utilizing feedback to reduce noise and identify likelihoods of correct decryption, or perhaps this would never work at all. Monitoring would still be necessary. John Coryell.
