That's silly! You are mistaken people who like to play with signatures with the rest of the world. Why rely on a crap extension with its own vulnerabilities when you can think portable?!? A simple text editor. Keep text encrypted all the time. You can inject it in webmail, over an unsecured line, at some party on host's computer. Yea, the one with lots and lots of viruses. You reveal location. But OTP can make that the only problem. > I also recently had noticed that keyserver lookups are in cleartext by > default, which is utter madness, but that at least is being fixed and > there is good info on how to do so in [65]. You're a bit nearsighted. But that is good. You are starting to notice things. We need more voices rising. Only don't hope to get to touch the higher plane in less than few years. For that Tor gives people the dot onion! A keyserver as a hidden service just gets personal protection from Tor. It's good. It's less than perfect. If there can be such a thing as perfect security. > Still, I wasn't expecting > that behaviour and thus exposed one of my social contacts when I did > this. In theory bad. In practice that is only the first step. You should move on. And they should too. If you are arma at tor project that could be an issue. If not, no bad. -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable on Google. Violations of list guidelines will get you moderated: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech.
