To test out the tenfingers protocol in a real world use case, I made a small html/js entrypoint for tenfingers (.10f) files.
Security is of course a concern with downloading things inside a javascript on a web page, so there are restrictions on how it can be used.
If you want to try it out, and give some feedback I’d be quite happy!
To do so:
Go to this link where you can download the html & js code (3 files) and a tenfingers test link.
Put them all in a temporary folder, and open the download.html file in your favorite browser, from there you can ‘load’ the 10f file.
The code is slow, does not give much details of what’s happening (hit F12 and check the ‘console’ tab (Firefox, other browsers might vary) or just check CPU usage (decryption is slow) so please be patient.
And please please report back, especially if something or nothing seems to work!
Cheers & thanks!
