Lmao did they really say it's null-key encrypted?

Unfortunately a very realistic depiction of how many of the brands advertising their security the strongest often have the most ridiculously broken security (flock)

[OrangeMusic]

"Null key" is technobabble, which I appreciate more than an actual real world technology reference which is wrong or gets outdated.

[StilesCrisis]

I rewatched recently. That's what he says all right.

[parl_match]

He also says "aflongaflongkong". https://youtu.be/0ukMXA0SJaM

[OrangeMusic]

He says "What's wrong with a phone call?".

[seg_lol]

They should have used base64 encryption.

[HiPhish]

How about ROT13? Ideally applied twice for twice the encryption.

[CrazyStat]

ROT13 is cheap enough that you can afford to apply it many more times. I use one million iterations to store passwords securely.

[mixmastamyk]

640k oughtta be enough for anybody.

[foobarchu]

Md5 encryption would be far superior.

[CobrastanJorji]

There are performance concerns with base64. Hardware-assisted null-key encryption offers security that's a non-strict superset of base64 encryption and with superior performance.

[hn_acc1]

null-key encryption is write-once, read-never, so you don't have to cache it.

[rightbyte]

I mean it is technobabble but in some way it is also poetic.

[culi]

It's funnier than typical technobabble because they're literally saying its not encrypted. The writers knew what they were doing, I'm sure

[cyanydeez]

Or its encrypted with no key meaning theres no way to open it

[reaperducer]

Lmao did they really say it's null-key encrypted?

You know movies aren't real life, don't you?

[simmerup]

Wait until he sees the main character is a super hero

[selcuka]

Batman is technically not a super (as in superhuman) hero, though. He's just rich and determined.

[testdelacc1]

Wait till he sees a billionaire sacrificing himself for others.

[butlike]

Technically not a super hero. He's whatever Gotham needs him to be

[padjo]

The Nolan Batman movies are absolutely risible in retrospect. It's hard to believe how seriously everyone took them back then.

[pc86]

Not a single person in the world took any of them "seriously."

They're blockbuster movies about a comic book.

[padjo]

Hah. People absolutely took them seriously and still do. They are pitched as if they're serious important art about issues. People discussed it like it was King Lear.

[culi]

I mean, one actor took their role so seriously they locked themselves up in hotel room for a month in isolation to prepare for their role as Joker. Many people in film took it seriously.

Just because a piece is fictional or imaginative doesn't mean it can't be taken seriously

[parineum]

You're conflating an actor taking their role seriously to a viewer taking fiction seriously.

[culi]

Film critics, viewers, media writers, online video essayists, etc all took the films very seriously

[simmerup]

They’re good entertainment, not a documentary haha
