No indeed, democracy is the group collectively deciding about their conditions. A democracy doesn't necessarily implies elections and officians, that's only one form. The whole point of a democracy is that people are the priority,

torrents are file-based but in v1 the edge of a file doesn't map with the edge of a piece, so you can't easily find file's hashes. In v2 this is solved and it is possible to easily know the hash of each file in the torrent, s

You have all the hashes in the .torrent file. All you need is a regular check with it (but then the .torrent file itself has to be stored on a storage that resists bit flipping)

Yes, but that's not a protocol. That's uploading a key to a server. The protocol is WKD and Proton doesn't respect it. Me opening an account on GMail doesn't mean I want people to contact me on GMail. If our protocol, ie

Yes, KOO is a good intermediary, but it still matters: there are no agreed-upon mechanism saying it should be used in all cases. You took this liberty. Why not even ask the receivers, aka those who know, if they're ok using that key ?

That a key exist on a random keyserver means nothing. There is a spec that explicitely says "if you want to use my key here it is" and Proton doesn't respect it. what does it mean that you found the key on some third-party do

Why does proton look up keys.openpgp.org? Is keys.openpgp.org assumed to be The One Directory for everyone ? Who said so ? There is no reason to consider it as the centre of the world if you deon't use it. That's exactly what wkd

So if I understand correctly: - Proton uses WKD for keys outside its own domain - OP didn't activate WKD for their own key (there is no CNAME) - But Proton still assumed that it was activated, that their key was on keys.openpgp.org

This is extortion if you want to not share back. For Libre software maximalists, this is a good thing: considering you can't do anything without others, it is only normal that you share what you do with others.
