There are two ways around /every/ cipher.

The related point here is that Brand X marketing (and nospam) want us to
believe that there is only one way, the frontal attack, against a cipher.

This serves their purpose to ignore that there is always another way which
isn't frontal.

It serves Brand X marketing purposes for people to /ignore/ the other way
around any cipher.. which ... I posit ... is false security.

That Brand X marketing makes its users /feel/ secure is commendable from
the emotional well being standpoint, but that's the only good it does.
