Perhaps you should also give the hashtag of cryptography? Also, nice post. This is also known as an one-time pad. But the key must be the length of the message to avoid leaking information.
Do not use the key more than once!
Also, it's not a true one-time pad unless you have true random data. However it's not feasible to accomplish as of today.
This type of encryption is vulnerable to known-plaintext attacks.
It's hard to meet the requirements to properly implement one-time pads.
Thanks for your comment Tari. The properties you said are correct :) I did not mention them to keep the post lightweight and more appealing and encouraging to everyone. That being said, a short description similar to the one you said could definitely improve the quality of the post.
Also, nice suggestion on the cryptography tag :)
