As you say, adding certificates to the key store isn't much of a problem on most platforms, either the system or the IM software should allow for this. Verifying this manually a single time would be ok, and even if this weren't done, the likelyhood of a man in the middle attack on me should be pretty slim. The objective of this is to avoid the big fishing nets, not targeted attacks by experts (let them experts know I just ordered cookie cutters, if they want to so much!). | |
