I heard the idea of encrypting the RSS feeds using public key encryption system from someone and since then I am intrigued by the idea. But then I started to wonder what would be the basic need for someone to encrypt their RSS feeds but, could figure it out myself.
I need ideas about why someone wants to encrypt their feeds. This would help me to take a decision whether RSS public-key encryption is something worth doing. I also would like to see if there are any other encryption systems and if they failed to satisfy people and why?
