Never underestimate the nastiness people are capable of. All you are protecting is a private key, which I'm sure could be extracted from you by some real nefarious methods...

Lol, that reminds me of this comic. . .

Beat on you, threaten to incarcerate you
Till you spill your guts like you a Garcia Vega

Do it to her! Do it to Julia! I dont care what you do to her, but do it to her! Tear her face off! Do it to Julia, not to me! DO IT TO JULIA! DO IT TO JULIA!!!! Not me!

You gotta remember that you don't ever want to feel like Winston did after he betrayed his love.

And I know what you're saying, but call me a cautious optimist: I hope Aldous Huxley was right. I hope we can create an Island, even if it only phases in and out of temporal existence.

Conditioned from the cradle, unceasingly distracted, mesmerized systematically, their uniformed victims would go on obediently marching and countermarching, go on, always and everywhere, killing and dying with the perfect docility of trained poodles. And yet in spite of the entirely justified refusal to take yes for an answer, the fact remained and would remain always, remain everywherethe fact that there was this capacity even in a paranoiac for intelligence, even in a devil worshiper for love; the fact that the ground of all being could be totally manifest in a flowering shrub, a human face; the fact that there was a light and that this light was also compassion.
