Yeah honestly I'm curious as to why Keybase is using PGP – is it really that widespread, or is it that PGP is so hardened with time?
I know the keybase devs lurk around here.
Is there perhaps a way to use the Signal Protocol instead of PGP?
- nickpsecurity 10y agoIdk about Keybase but I recommended GPG because it was one of only three or so tech the NSA couldn't break per Snowden leaks. They were smashing most stuff. So, my recommendation was modifying proven code to put a better UI on it that ignored most of the complexity to focus on just fundamental features. Note: Keybase with with their own PGP implementation. Idk what its security is going to be like. I see why they'd use tech that's had years of auditing and attacks, though.
