They published a followup to that article two months ago, and the correct answer in 2024 is still HMAC.

    Who's "they"? This "right answers" thing is a meme (I ruefully share responsibility for it) that needs to die; Colin Percival has nothing to do with anything but the first one.

      I linked to the older Latacora one upthread and this comment is linking to the newer Latacora one. So I think it's reasonable to read "they" as "Latacora" here.

        Yes, I wrote the older Latacora one, which was based on thing I wrote under my own name before I founded Latacora; I'm pretty sure I'm on solid ground saying Colin Percival had nothing to do with anything I wrote, since I wrote the first one as a rebuttal to Colin. (Did I misread you? Maybe we just agree.)
