I got here by my security class teacher, I been using PGP for years.

Good show by the way.

pgp is 100% pointless sine it has a backdoor key inserted into it . which means the verage couldnt acess it but if a law eforcemnt etc could in about 2 seconds!!

@scotland2019 Where did you get that information? PGP is OPEN SOURCE, so everyone can see it's source code. If you think that it has a backdoor, go ahead, download the source code, locate the backdoor, and THEN come and post bullshit around :)

Is it true that pretty much most home made encryption algorhythms (ie codes that I write myself in C) are crackable? [Can you take a look at my encryption algorhythm here: (in the video response) and let me know if it is crackable? ]

[GuidSaucy]

There are so many variables and possible vectors of attack. Just one person having "a look" cannot determine if the code isn't crackable.

PGP source code's been "open" for years and everyone in the encryption world can look at it and test it and attempt to expose vulnerabilities.

The code from a do-it-yourself project has not really been put to the test of years of analysis by many people.

That's the difference. PGP has gone through a lot of real world testing.
