I've been curious about encryption, especially in light of increasing government surveillance and privacy concerns. With all the discussion around age verification, VPNs, and smartphone monitoring, I want to understand if there are any straightforward encryption algorithms that could potentially be executed simply, something even as basic as an abacus could handle. Ideally, I'm looking for methods that would make it tough to reverse engineer without access to an encryption key.

Honestly, if you're looking for something basic, security by obscurity isn't going to cut it. Simple encryption methods can be easily broken if they're not robust enough. You need to look for something more reliable than just basic techniques.
For easy encryption, try looking into ARX constructions like Salsa20 and ChaCha. They’re relatively straightforward and more secure than simpler methods. Not sure how effective they'd be on an abacus, but trying to run them on such a device could be quite a challenge!
