Maybe I am missing something here... (Please don't flame me if I am!) ;^)

If the keys are temporary and you never actually know what they are... I can see how this can be used for secure netwarking etc (like pgpnet), but does this not make this encryption technique useless for securing data ? I mean if you have a file you want to be private - either for storage or to mail to someone else, doesn't this make it useless for this?

Is that the point - only for peer to peer use, for example?

Please excuse a security learner if I have missed the point!
