This means that a backup made today might not work with paperback tomorrow. However, once there is a proper release of paperback, the format of that version of paperback will be set in stone and any new changes will be done with a new version of paperback (paperback can detect the version of a document, so older documents will always be handled by paperback). paperback is a paper-based backup scheme that is secure and easy-to-use. Backups are encrypted, and the secret key is split into numerous \"key shards\" which can be stored separately (by different individuals), removing the need for any individual to memorise a secret passphrase. This system can also be used as a digital will, because the original creator of the backup is not required to be present (or consent to) the decryption of the backup if enough of the \"key shards\" are collected. No individual knows the secret key (not even you), and thus no party can be compelled to provide the key without the consent of k-1 other parties. To make this system as simple-to-use as possible, paperback creates several PDFs which you can then print out and laminate, ready for recovery. Here are some examples of the generated documents: Mockups Current Status ------------- :-----------------------------------------------","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/cyphar","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/cyphar/paperback/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
