Re: Encrypted morally grey

I believe that if someone doesn't want you to look at something you shouldn't look at it. FIRST encrypts the manual because they don't want us to see it until Saturday. Therefore it is wrong, in my opinion, to try and break into it. Besides this type of encryption is difficult to crack as the keys are very large. It could take hundreds of years to break with a brute force attack. So trying to do so would likely be a waste of time.


If by chance you have broken it I would suggest keeping the secret to yourself.
