    The government doesn’t as heavily regulate your email password or computer. The government does regulate automakers and the vehicles they produce. Included safety and security regulations.

      So you’re implying Google Email is not secure? You think that because your computer is not physically paired to a google server that the Google encryption can easily be cracked, or that vice versa it couldn’t be if it were?

      If those are your stances, then you are wrong on all accounts.

        What in the straw man argument. Your email doesn’t drive on public roads you moron. What are you even talking about.

        And if you want to completely own a motor vehicle buy and build a kit car. And the.n go get it inspected because the government won’t let you drive it on the road until you can prove it’s road worthy.

          You said that part pairing is a security measure due to regulation which computers don’t have, so that means you think that computers are less secure because they are less regulated, right? Part Pairing is not a security measure, encryptions without part pairing are just as secure.

            Lol. That’s a poorly worded excuse for a come back that doesn’t make an actual point and puts words in my mouth I never said. Additionally it adds meaning to the words I did say that don’t make any sense.

            Further, since your computer is in fact fairly insecure (look up how easy it is to just completely bypass windows and install Linux) I wouldn’t be opening myself up to further arguments in this vein if I were you. Emails get hacked all the time. It’s literally a scammers paradise. Know one of the things that prevents spear phishing and other attacks? A physical security key. Or multi factor authentication. What are you even on.

              If you think it’s so easy to break AES-256 then feel free to prove it. The whole world would be amazed at your feat. Clearly all other forms of security are meaningless in the face of paired parts, right?

                  It’s not even a way. Because it’s not a security measure.
