Cool, glad there's WIP on this front, and thanks for your work :) > avoiding the use of tor for parcimonie seems like it would (a) not solve > the underlying problems, and (b) be more likely to expose users to > network surveillance. Sure. To be fair though, I don't think anyone suggested that parcimonie stops using Tor. I think that what's at stake is whether it is acceptable that parcimonie configures dirmngr to use Tor, in a way that applies to *all* other uses of dirmngr. Cheers, -- intrigeri
