If you're using Firefox, there's a ROT13 extension that lets you readily ROT13 any desired web pages. Yes I do use Firefox. I was wondering why rot13 was popular vs. others I.E. 8. After thinking about it I realized 13 is 1/2 way through the alphabet so cypher and decipher can use the same tool/program. A shifts to N and N shifts to A. Fewer tables and/or coding in the program. Yup, that's about it. ROT13 is obviously not meant to be any sort of real "encryption", just something really geeky for hackers to play with to confuse the n00bs. |

"encryption", just something really geeky for hackers to play with to confuse the n00bs. First time I saw it was on usenet in the late 80's or early 90's, it was used for offensive or not-safe-for-work/wives/kids text.. You could pull up a thread and have it on the screen, and rot13 it when the coast was clear. That, or punchlines for jokes.. Most old unix newsreaders had a hotkey that instantly converted posts back and forth. If your boss or wife walked in while you were doing something questionable, you could quick rot13 the whole post and say it was dutch or norwegian or something.. Note** - know what languages your boss/wife is fluent in before using that one.. |
