- reeses 13y agoAnd 90% of the time, people want to revoke their old keys because they had a pressing one-time need to have a PGP key (vendor exchange, whatever) and lost the private key without generating and saving a revocation certificate. This is a place where solid infrastructure support at the OS-level would really help. Instead, it's nerds and the paranoid who bother, and they'll steal the software or insist on open source anyway. :-)
