Comment on Ask HN: Review our startup: Deniable Video

Comments

At most, this device seems trustworthy exactly to the extent that you trust that hardware hasn't been tampered with. Since there's very little information about how the tamper-proofing works, I tend towards skepticism.

At worst, they've implemented a cryptosystem that, having never been peer reviewed, is vulnerable to basic attacks. Since I can't find out who the authors are, and they use both AES and Serpent with listed key sizes instead of talking about how the design works, I tend towards skepticism.

Finally, I'm with everyone else wondering why deniability is something the market cares about.
