obligatory bcrypt is not encryption
Correct but you also dont want an encrypted password. You want a hashed password.
this is true, and the name bcrypt can be misleading to non experts. i don’t blame them for getting this wrong in a pr statement 🤷♀️
Encrypted is also the word to make people feel safer.
