tombruzzo comments on Indie developer has a plan to keep parts of his game secret, even from data-miners

I hope people respect this until parts of the game have been found.

This is a better reason to encrypt parts of a game than any anti-piracy measure

Dude is effectively open challenging data-miners. Regardless of how people feel about them, this is going to motivate them to try.

Even if this one game limits them until things are found, the techniques likely won't work again as the data miners will then look at how they could have discovered the keys given knowledge of how to find them.

This is what is meant by it being an arms race.
