That makes me wonder if people are complaining about OpenPGP or instead about GnuPG? It probably doesn't really matter, but many newer encryption solutions ridicule PGP in general. Now I wonder if they mean to ridicule GnuPG instead?
- tptacek 5y agoIt's all the same thing. People talk about the standard as if it's an important thing by itself, but it has literally no meaning outside the installed base. You can't rehabilitate OpenPGP by observing that the standard allows you to implement it safely, because the installed base is what controls.
