Stupid idea for signing: use invisible characters to embed GPG signature (or signify(1) or whatever) inside any text you publish. This way, when the text is copy/pasted, your signature is still attached.
You can even make browser and text editor plugins to make it ubiquitous.
(yes you can make a screenshot, remove invisible chars, etc.)
