This is a rather interesting topic and timely in some ways. I had a discussion with someone with unpopular socio-political views on this very subject several years ago. He is now in prison awaiting trial in a trumped up attempted murder charge, so there is definitely a potential need. When you offend the powers that be with written words, the written words had better be carefully distributed indeed!
The problem I always ran into was in key management. I had a couple of work-arounds that might have solved this particular individual's problem. workaround one: set up a special email account that everyone on your list has IMAP access to, then encrypt to that username, making certain that everyone on the list has both the IMAP and/or SMTP password to that account as well as the GPG keys for decryption. That way the Illuminati, if they should stumble on the account somehow, wouldn't be able to access it, and if they got through that somehow... i.e.: by pressuring Google politically, they still would not easilly be able to decrypt the message. Your list members, though, would have no trouble accessing the account and decrypting the messages. The disadvantages are the same as any other security scheme; vulnerability to a physical attack, secure distribution of the keys. Even if you distribute the keys carefully by flying around the world and physically handing out Flash drives with the keys, you still might get a mole. workaround two: use Steghide or other steganography binary to hide your message in a cover file. Not even the Bilderbergers and the Rothschilds have the resources to check everybody's pictures of Aunt Sue at the Beach for hidden messages, especially if there are alot of them. Once one attains a certain level of notoriety, this breaks down as your messages will all be scrutinized carefully. The hidden message could also be encrypted using a securely distributed key. There are ways around the vulnerabilities in these schemes, but a discussion of Mixmaster client/servers is beyond the scope of what has become an excessively long email... sorry about that.
