OpenID never really achieved a critical mass of consumers. Lots of OpenID providers, but even they didn't accept logins from other OpenID sources. And now OAuth seems to be prevalent. But I'm sorry to see https://www.myopenid.com/ shut down. -

Speaking of auditing code: http://istruecryptauditedyet.com/ (Answer: No.) A friend speculated that the funds raised to audit Truecrypt ($46,420) is probably far greater than the Truecrypt developers have ever received in donations for their work. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-truecrypt-audit -

Of course !crypto is difficult! Remember when someone cleaned up the OpenSSL source code by removing the uninitialized buffer that contributed to entropy? http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571 It would be good for the !FreeSoftware world if all security code was independently audited. -

@mukimu also writes " While the NSA-defined values of P and Q are unknown…" — how people write an implementation if P and Q are unknown? I think he must have meant "the *relationship between* P and Q are unknown" -

Self-encrypting drives: http://www.zdnet.com/the-self-encrypting-drive-you-may-already-own-7000024797/ Who would trust that, knowing that the NSA has subverted the firmware in Western Digital drives?
