gollark: Trouble is that ECC stuff in CC currently is... not fast.
gollark: The door lock would then verify that the message was actually signed with the key, and the times are close enough.
gollark: The door lock or whatever would store the public key, the pocket computer the private key, and the pocket computer would constantly broadcast a message containing the current time, signed with its private key.
gollark: Just thinking about it, the most secure way might be a pocket computer sending sender-verified signals based on the current time.
gollark: Unless somebody is... using it off switchcraft?
