So I read the wiki on the One-time pad and there&#x27;s something I&#x27;m a little stuck on. There&#x27;s a statement (paraphrasing) that the OTP is immune to cryptanalysis (brute force) because any given key translates to all possible plain-text, and the viable words all have a-priori the same likelihood.<p>The thing I&#x27;m stuck on though, isn&#x27;t it still possible to do semantic analysis on the various permutations. Basically reading permutations for cogent statements? So do some sort of a-posteriori analysis<p>Infeasible for a human to do, but assuming one could construct a significantly advanced parser (non-trivial of course), wouldn&#x27;t it be possible to brute force still? What am I missing?
