Taxi-driver to MIT Physics professor

No one knew what time was in physics before Seth Lloyd  who did PhD in 2000, Claimed that one could describe pure states and mixed states by 0 and 1 and simple mixing was time through entanglement, thus fathered quantum information theory, but had a thesis that fell on deaf year, reducing him to cab-driver, before it became fashionable through work in Bristol, UK. I can relate, for many early years in 1990's after sub humanness of University of Massachusetts, I spent time in Minneapolis going to camera shops and computer shops, way before rich video companies shot ahead in this game solely because of money.

I decided then after that disaster to do science in obscure field where money does not matter, it was physics for my hero and cryptography for me. All my friends collapsed or became managers ahead of juggernaut of changing technology, top-down, bottom up, object-oriented bottom-up and event-oriented functional distributed.

They retired or were fired. but I fight on, last of technologists on cryptography. Being research professor means can bootstrap into new internet programming and now android programming. Never master of latest security products.

 All will die before Distributed IBE, secret backdoor inverting exponentiation, squaring (me), coding etc. Idea of irreversible encryption is a simple one-way trapdoor function, crypt-impossible to invert unless trapdoor is known! My case is squaring, sqrting (crypt-impossible unless sqrt of name known) and on earth only I can do it. From it come three I do, and two dozen when I am done. BIBE means not requiring knowledge of target key! They are free encrypted email, free encrypted telephone, and paid responsible conversations.

Paid responsible conversations are new and essential to progress of earth. Just any lie can be stated in print or speech. So easy in fact that escape from criminals is first thing taught and learned life-long, including how to lie. Very inefficient for humans and robots.

You must decide what requires proof, evaluate proof offered (certificates – some as special paper, some written, some spoken) and what more to ask. Privacy means not offering asked proof, if irrelevant or improper to offer. That it can even be formalized in general is hard, Doing it with IBE is very very major!
