"Why would anyone put film in their camera, take a picture, have it developed, scan it, email it, all so that I can print it on a dot matrix? That's so complicated; I could just put it in a manilla envelope and send it through the postal service. Why do I need a new way to send information?" If you want to continue using legacy technology, that's fine. If you're not comfortable with your bits being in a computer, that's fine. But it'll be slower, more expensive, and less transnational etc. |

That's the issue with your idea though. For the current status quo all I need is a valid credit card and the ability to type "curl -H "hibp-api-key: <whatever the key is>" https://haveibeenpwned.com/api/v3/breachedaccount/test@examp...
I can have that done in less then 60 seconds, it fits his threat model, and can be done in any language with a tcp lib.
Your idea isn't bad, it just does not fit the problem.
