None of those use cases should involve a public keyserver if you don't want people to email you encrypted stuff. Keyservers are literally there to "broadcast to the world 'hey, email me encrypted stuff to keyid 0xABCD1234!'."

- soraminazuki 3y agoBecause the act of publishing has a well-established meaning. The same reason I can't publish a book and shout at people who read it. "I wrote it for my eyes only, how dare you read it!" is a ridiculous thing to say.
