    It’s not good.

    But it’s leagues better than crypto.

    I hate typing ‘asymmetric key cryptography’, and GPG is just three letters.

    Those blog posts explain a lot, but one use case is missing (at least I don’t see it apart from git commit signing), and that is verifying the source of a public message.

    And I do wish we tried using the private keys more. Specially now when anyone can deepfake anything.

    If I ever release my nudes, never trust them unless they are signed and you can check them with public key in my profile.
