No longer encrypted?

I just noticed that in the HL2 section of the counter-strike source shared content.gcf, you can now view the jpgs that are located there. Unfortunately, all the jpgs I found were just debris stuff. Was this avaliable before? Seems odd to unlock something like this at this stage of the whole process.
 
Yeah the CSS GFC's have all kinds of HL2 crap in them that isn't encrypted, but they're just stuff you wouldn't want to look at anyway (like you said, debris, etc)
 
OK, sorry if this is old news, I just never noticed this when browsing the gcf files before.
 
No problem. Don't worry, it'll take the power of the FBI to crack the actual HL2 ones :p

I doubt the FBI could crack any good encryption. I heard somewhere it would take a supercomputer a billion years or something to crack a certain encryption... Or something.

Encryption isn't worth much if it's that easy to crack.
 
A billion years? I think I read somewhere that you'd need 2-3 months to crack a 128-bit encription...

lol, you need 100 computers to crack it in 100 years or so...

Or that fully operational quantum computer they have tucked away to crack it in less than a day. :smoking:

Actually, it's not a quantum computer. They have implemented quantum encryption though. Slight difference :)
 
it's kinda weird though...why would valve let us watch those silly pics :)
