*le sigh*

Got involved in a discussion where a prominent dev argues to make the adoption of cryptographic validation easier by giving up on trust anchors.

On my way back from #IETF121 I talked to another attendee who turned out to be Google's Head of Cryptography, Sophie Schmieg. At one point she said the reason cryptographers turned up at IETF is because protocol designers keep making basic mistakes.

I feel the connection between those two conversations so, so hard.
