hey @steemitblog I am worried about the attack vectors of printers and their cache which can be hacked,
In your Blog post here, you write about the backing up of steemit keys by PRINTING Them, a worrying affair
and strongly suggests that they print it out as a backup
The Bitcoin paper wallet community is full of horror stories of having printer caches hacked and since manmy printers KEEP COPIES of what they print and you have all these attack vectors on the way to the printer from teh computer, and how you have to save those keys in a PDF on yoru desktop environment before sending it to a printer, how most people dont even use printers at home anymore and would hve to take their keys to a public printer, probably college kids using school printers, i mean so many attack vectors. cant we just go back to 12 word phrases so people can WRITE DOWN their keys on PAPER?
Or why doesnt Steemit inc open an official partnership with Lastpass or its open source FOSS equivalent OR maybe steem can sponsor the creation of its own lastpass style system for backing up steem keys
Also steem needs a recovery system for inactive accounts where the owner has lost the key, we need to have a recovery partner style person you can set up as your recovery partner if your account has 6 months, 1 year or 2 years of inactivity, then the account ownership is sent to that person or backup account.
nice comment post.
