As part of its efforts, the bloc has repeatedly introduced its Chat Control legislation, aimed at weakening the encryption that protects messaging services and force providers to provide a client-side backdoor for law enforcement.

Started reading the Kademlia paper, then tried writing a minimal realization in a file named "min.tcl", it got big with something like e-news and contact directory, then "clean.tcl", it got messy and grew something like a chat and a buddy list, then the new revision was called "dirty.tcl" and now I'm fixing what turned into horrible mess since it initially worked.

Not that I'm going to share a terribly messy one 2360 line tcl/tk script.

Just - how is this even happening, there are plenty of people smarter, there could have been a compelling standard, dozens of usable applications, herds of apologists and widespread usage of something that doesn't take, say, 4 competent people more time and effort than this exercise took me.
