Beginning with #Thunderbird 78, #OpenPGP support will be built into Thunderbird and #Enigmail will no longer work.
The set of people with whom I communicate with #GPG is very small and growing smaller, so this will not have much of an impact.

It may also matter that when I say "#PGP", I really mean "#GnuPG" because AFAICT GPG is the PGP that everyone actually uses these days. There are "trust signatures" in #OpenPGP, and GPG can make and use them..., but they're a whole different thing from "trust", "signatures", and #WoT. And I don't think I've ever actually seen one in the wild. Some other PGP implementation might use tsigs by default? But I doubt it?

Porque en p4g decimos malas palabras y otras guarangadas, hemos tenido que crear una sala #xmpp con cifrado #openpgp ¡Ahora estamos más tranquilos! Creo. !xmppes !privacidad !crypto !p4g

@mcnalu Always choose a VPS provider you can communicate with using #OpenPGP and encrypted !XMPP! ;)
(so far I know only of @mikael at https://tranquillity.se/ publicly communicating that possibility).
-
The last week I've had new communication with two people who have both quickly and easily used encrypted e-mail with #OpenPGP.
Now it's @rw's turn.

Dude, @rw, if we're going to discuss selling off user data then you'd better use #OpenPGP so I can make you an offer you cannot refuse.

@rw https://blog.mmn-o.se/ has e-mail + #OpenPGP details in sidebar.

@lnxw48 That'd be a piece of cake to implement using #OpenPGP, once you get past teaching your close family and relatives to use it!
-
@arunisaac I.e. #OpenPGP wouldn't work very well for its purposes if you didn't know who sent it or who it was meant for.
-
@arunisaac OpenPGP doesn't intend to hide the social graph, it focuses on other things. There is no one-crypto-to-rule-them-all, so you'll have to choose which properties you want from crypto technology. OpenPGP is extremely good to make sure that data and identities is _verifiable_. Furthermore it allows encryption, in order to store secrets between people who trust e…

I have recently purchased an SCR331 smartcard reader that was verified to work with GNU/Linux and #OpenPGP. Today I plugged in my #FSFE fellowship card, transferred my signing and encryption key. This is like magically easy. Perfect integration with #GnuPG, Icedove/Thunderbird and !gnomedesktop. How can anyone _not_ use encryption in this day and age? I'm amazed at how…

♻ @gnupg Minutes from the #ietf #openpgp session are online: https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/96/minutes/minutes-96-openpgp ¶ !crypto !gnupg

@moonman Well, you could have company policy to require full trust in the master key that the boss keeps a passphrase for in his top desk drawer. #OpenPGP works for every situation!
-
@pettter Are there any other crypto tools/algorithms out there that can even form a web of trust? If anyone wants to use decentralised trust, I highly doubt any user experience will be better than with modern #OpenPGP tools.
So while it may be hard to use, at least it works. And thus is far from useless. At least if you prefer to avoid centralised control over secure communication.
-
@verius In the case of a malicious server publishing false aliases neither of the other profiles you use (previously stored with remote nodes as verified/recognized as "yours") would acknowledge the newly added alias and thus the trustworthiness is low and it does not get (at least automatically) accepted. Or similarly to #OpenPGP where the only way you can trust someo…

@einebiene The #Enigmail plugin for #Thunderbird (or #Iceweasel ) makes it relatively easy to get started. Gnome's(?) #Evolution has integrated #OpenPGP by default.
-
@einebiene Most of the reasons people have against #OpenPGP are that it (and especially email) "leaks metadata". But the whole point of it is to verify identities anyway. I don't use OpenPGP for pseudonymous communication, but for integrity and authentication. To make sure that the person I receive something from actually generated it. This is especially interesting wh…

I use #OpenPGP for other reasons :P

@fsf This is great, I wish I could've posted an #OpenPGP signature instead of having to snail mail a contract to the US :P
