"Now your collection of business cards is susceptible to tampering (no cryptographic authentication!)."
You are missing the part where it was suggested that the recipient of the business card telephones you and asks to verify the fingerprint.
- Tomte 12y agoYou are missing both the "or" in his sentence (i.e. he describes alternatives, not cumulative measures) and my retort to the verification by phone.
- frabbit 12y agoIn response to Tomte's criticism, this all boils down to the certification level http://tanguy.ortolo.eu/blog/article9/pgp-signature-infos http://tanguy.ortolo.eu/blog/article9/pgp-signature-infos 1) A fingerprint on a possibly compromised business card == 0 2) A fingerprint verified by phoning someone == 1 etc, And associated with that independently is of course the level of trust. Sorry Tomte for not replying immediately to your message, but I've posted too much on this apparently.
