Ultimately, the PGP ecosystem prioritises security over privacy. They are not the same thing, and in some cases they are in conflict.
Somewhat of a generalization, but essentially correct. More precisely - if I may - it's point of balance between the privacy and security represents our thinking about the relative importance of these two categories at the time the system was conceived, decades ago. Since that time, our view about the importance of security has changed very little. Our view about the importance and desirability of privacy has changed a whole lot. Consequently, it is time to re-examine the point of balance between the two. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
