me worried. Public Key Cryptography at its worst!

Explain how that is the worst configuration, do you even know what you're talking about? That is the classic public/private key cryptography configuration. The reason why the key is "private" is because it is held privately... otherwise it wouldn't work. Please no more scaremongering, if you really know what you're talking about elaborate, if not, just keep quiet nalang. I have taken a master's level course in computer security so be forewarned before you formulate your response, because I will take it apart if it's wrong.
