Practical proof that cryptography doesn't always help…

// At least this satisfies our “Mostly randomly generated noise.” mantra. ;)

@e-sushi What was the name? I got an email too from a company in Hungary (Crosssec). Didn't get an NDA, but mentioned it in the email.

@mikeazo Yep, that's them. For the curious… [original NDA as they've send it to me](#gone) (temporarily stored at Google Drive – will vanish by the end of the week)

My two cents: just don't.

I'll bluntly skip listing the reasons why it's a bad idea to take their offer – not only from a legal point of view. But to give y'all an idea… "…20.000.000,- HUF (that is twenty million Hungarian Forint)" – That's € 19.999.691,20 at the time I received the NDA. A simple background check showed their group of companies (partly listed in the NDA, and partly covered by undisclosed "partners") is not worth that much. Also, "…without any time limitation." – is equal to a life-time limitation. Etc.

Personally, I'ld rather invest in some prince from Ghana than thinking about stepping into such a “crypto consulting” request/offer/pitfall. But that might just be me… ;)

I finally got around to answering that. Am I missing anything?

I wish people would post crypto questions on crypto. On Math they get so little attention.

@mikeazo I didn't realize they have a crypto tag over at math :o

@mikeazo flag for migration? Note in the flag that you are a mod on crypto? :p

I'll give it a shot.
