message == private key
If Alice sends an encrypted "message" to Bob, and Mallory intercepts the message without ever having the means to decrypt it, would it be correct to say that the message doesn't exist (to Mallory) until Mallory has the key to decrypt it?
In turn, if my private key are encrypted before it gets stored online, would it be correct to approximate that my private keys do not come into existence unless I have the passphrase to it?
