No one can bank online without reliable encryption. No one can transact business online without reliable encryption.
You can actually. It just wouldn’t be encrypted.
Instead you just have to trust that anything you're doing is actually with who they claim to be. No encryption means no identity or security guarantee.
Closed systems don’t require encryption.
Are you stupid enough to actually think the Internet is a closed system?
No lmao. How did you get that from all the talk about radio transmission and encryption?
This specific thread is talking about transacting business and banking online. You should be more careful to keep your arguments separated. Otherwise you not only look like an idiot but you also prove you can't multitask for shit.
This specific thread is about criminality of encryption.
In which case anyone who wants to can read the message traffic and make changes to it before passing it on to the receiver.
No, you can't conduct business this way.
Thats why it would have to be a closed system with controlled transmissions rather than omnidirectional radio transmissions.
