Oh, you think its functuonal?
Send an email signed with openPGP to your bank, can they validate your signature?
Have you ever tried to get an OpenPGP key to sign your email, do you know what a nightmare it is? Because i have, and I couldn't, I have also built kubernetes clusters from scratch, and it's easier.
Okay, say you got a key, send it to your IT department, what % of IT proffeshionals can use OpenPGP, 2%? What % of 'normal people' can use it, 0%?
That is your great success, 0-2%.
That's way worse than the system academia has now, it might be crap, but its not 98% crap
- j-pb 5y agoYou asked for a successfull web of trust, not a great example of an encrypted email client.
- ClumsyPilot 5y agoHow is it succesfull? What did it succeed at? I just outlined how no-one is using it and no-one is capable of using it. What is the metric and benchmark of success you are using where OpenPGP with it's 0% adoption is successfull, but the way academia works currently is not successfull?
