Making decryption keys "field replaceable"
Asked by
Joshua Kugler
Would it be possible to abstract out the decryption in such a way that they keys used to decrypt the streams could be downloaded from a trusted server, and not require updating a releasing a new package. That way, when new keys come out, it would not require a new package to be released, but just new keys to be posted, which Pithos clients could then download. Yes, it would require every user on a system downloading the keys, but with just a few K per key (I assume) it shouldn't be too much of a load. This of course wouldn't help when there is a login API change.
