This spits out a warning to the console, but ideally it would also issue a warning to the GUI for those who didn't start it from the console. N.B. the warning is a one shot thing, since it fixes the problem in a way essentially undetectable in the future, so it should be done right if it is to be done at all. Maybe we should even disable all keys automatically if the keyfile is found in an insecure state.
PyBitmessage
Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.
