In the realm of IT security "There could be a backdoor" means exactly the same thing as "There definitely is a backdoor".
-
In other words: if there may or may not be a backdoor, but the NSA is showing an awful lot of interest in the alleyway behind the building, there's probably a backdoor.

Best quote I heard was 'Random number generation is too important to be left to chance'

8:36: My favourite part. -"256 bits worth! Which is... uhm..." tries to calculate 2^256 in his head -"Lots." -"Yeah!" :D :D :D

I still have deep respect for Mike as a teacher. He keeps things engaging yet understandable, raises some good questions while explaining some and letting you research some others. It's a delightful blend of in-depth and clear and I know how stupendously hard it can be to be this charismatic blend of interest. I always immediately watch videos of Mike.

The NSA really need's to mind their P's and Q's
-
Dr Pound is still the best one to explain stuff on computerphile. I love those Cryptography videos!
-
Well ... from all the items you listed as "suspicious" my suspicion actually dissapeared. I have no doubts now that it is indeed a backdoor by whoever is paying to implement it (I guess NSA).
-
Oh, that naughty NSA, always getting its pointer up our backdoors
-
NIST: we did not find any evidence of 'e' in our design process Mike: did you look? NIST: um well no not really

I love how he says it’s “very interesting” yet we all know he means “very, very concerning”.

"Any one who considers arithmetical methods of producing random digits is, of course, in a state of sin. " John Von Neumann

I find it astonishing that a standard can go through and still be used with so many "that's suspicious". Just one suspicious thing should be enough to just ignore it and use something else..
-
"Computers don't operate in a random way." Ever used Windows?
-
Definitely one of the most interesting Computerphile videos I've seen. And Dr Pound is superb at explaining this stuff.
-
"If there's someone who knows this e, and it's not me..." That's exactly what you'd say if it WERE you, isn't it? Seems pretty suspicious to me. You don't see many people denying they know that number, do you?
-
I'd seen papers and articles on this before, this is the first time I've understood what the issue is. Great work!
-
Excellent video Dr. Pound. You have a great way of explaining things at just the right level of detail. Making notes on 132 column tractor feed paper is just an aded bonus! Keep up the great work.

All these interesting caviats and niche applications is what makes ECC so amazing
