Thanks for the explanation. Good luck! Post-Snowden, you sure see a lot of people trying to reduce the burden of key verification... But some ideas are better thought out than others. A lot of misconceptions out there, it seems. > despite the lack of what I guess you might term biometric authentication. Personally, I stay far from actual biometric authentication. I can't revoke my eyes... and biometric scanners that aren't easily fooled are insanely expensive. Watch out with that logical implication there: some insanely expensive biometric scanners can be easily fooled :). It's interesting you're using "biometric" as a qualifier implying something "good". I wouldn't agree. Cheers, Peter. -- I use the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) in combination with Enigmail. You can send me encrypted mail if you want some privacy.
