Quote from: kmfkewm on June 03, 2012, 11:48 amThe identity of your associate is almost certainly already known if he lets random people from SR send him cash in the mail for bitcoinsIf an LEO stooge were to be sent a message with the mailing address they would have to click the link within it to display the name and address of my associate. However after that they'd only have the stooge's word for it that the Privnote contained his particular name and address as it's being deleted after being viewed (or so we are told! :-D ). Examining the problem from the other end i.e submitting my associate's name and address to Privnote on its own also gives LEO nothing as anyone could have written his address there, including himself for any reason. Sending a plaintext address over SR may be more secure theoretically but ensuring that people only view the address when the envelope is sent reduces the chance my customers will store it on their machines by saving an e-mail or message to their hard drives. Of course this isn't a problem if you use full disk encryption but we've already discussed that is by no means a guarantee of safety!I wouldn't recommend people use it over Tormail + GPG generally but it suits my particular needs when dealing with newer clients. I don't understand why some vendors don't use GPG though, surely it's something that's covered in the Seller's Guide?V.
