# now uses apparently better progress detection, based on duration of overall video and progress along the conversion

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

This mini-rant came on the heels of an interesting twitter discussion: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/591074055018582016

I hope this patch is acceptable in something like its present form. If
so, I'll write up the documentation updates as well. (But I suspect it
may spark some discussion.)

It updates some rather outdated defaults hard-wired into GnuPG:

1. Default cipher algorithm: CAST5 -> AES256
2. Default digest algorithm: SHA1 -> SHA512
3. Default S2K hash algorithm: SHA1 -> SHA256
4. Default S2K iterations: 255 (this takes about 400ms in E2E, not

I wasn't first to get the key. Nor was I second, third, or even fourth. I'm probably not even the
10th to get it (ok, looks like I was the 8th.) But I'm happy that I was able to prove to myself
that I too could do it.

First, I have to admit I was a skeptic. Like the handful of other dissenters, I had initially
believed that it would be highly improbable under normal conditions to obtain the private key
through exploiting Heartbleed. So this was my motivation for participating in Cloudflare's
challenge. I had extracted a lot of other things with Heartbleed, but I hadn't actually set out to
extract private keys. So I wanted to see first-hand if it was possible or not.
