Thanks for your thoughtful reply to my shitpost like comment.

I highly doubt that intelligence services are not using open source encryption standards for their communications. If they didnt, they would constantly get hacked instead of sometimes.

Obscurity is not security and will never be, which goes in line with your enigma comment. It was designed so that gaining knowledge of its construction significantly weakend the encryption which further proves the importance of systems that withstand exposure to the public.

Without open encryption standards there is no internet and we wouldnt be able to write these meaningless comments.
