Okay, so kidnap them, right?



yes and? you get the data of only one tarsnap user.

The comment you were responding to was from the tarsnap creator where he was saying he doesn't have access to those keys so cannot be coerced to give them (and thus has no way to decrypt the data of all the clients).


And the point is, the main creator isn’t the target in any of these situations anyway. The end user is. So what’s the point of the statement?
