much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
Oh! I remember these steps being explained on a youtube video before. So the point is that the padlock (that Adam received on the third paragraph) is like a program on my windows desktop, I can run it (here like Adam uses it to encrypt the date), I can copy it and send it to a friend, but I can't read the code which is compiled through an unknown language (i.e even if snooper received the padlock he can't figure out how to unlock it and decrypt the data)?
Yep, if a thrid party gets the padlock they can lock the box, but can't unlock other boxes
Thank you! extremely helpful answer
