Maybe only the right people use PGP.
- tptacek 5y agoI honestly have no trouble believing that's what PGP's userbase believes about themselves, which is absolutely part of the problem.
- UncleMeat 5y agoSafe communication should be available to everybody. Given how many professional engineers botch PGP at some point, it isn't exactly a great option for people like journalists who may need to depend on it with their lives. "Don't worry, these few thousand techies are the only ones that need secure communication" is sheer arrogance.
- approxim8ion 5y agoThat's fine, but even the "right" people need to interact with the "unwashed masses" sometimes. If your cryptosystem isn't readily accessible to everyone, it's kind of useless.
