Removing incorrect references to broken encryption #39

Closed sullivanmatt closed 10 years ago

This PR removes the statement: "Recent news states that SSL/TLS, HTTPS, SSH, VPN, PGP, AES, Encrypted VoIP, and 4G technologies have been broken (even Tor and L2TP/IPSec potentially being compromised)"

None of these technologies have been shown to be weak or broken. When implemented properly, the protocols (and the crypto behind them) remains 100% solid. To claim that any of these have been defeated is to entirely misunderstand the actual cryptographic issues at hand.

I respectfully disagree, but good luck with your project.
