No. Public keys are public and are happy to be readable.
What can _not_ be allowed is group/world writeable... ANYWHERE in the
path.
eg if ~dan is /home then
/ must be owned by root and permission 755
/home must be owned by root and permission 755
/home/dan must be owned by dan and not be group/world writeable
/home/dan/.ssh must be owned by dan and not be group/world writeable
/home/dan/.ssh/authorized_keys must be owned by dan and
not be group/world writeable
Also permissions of /etc /etc/ssh /etc/ssh/sshd_config and so on.
