TLS and GPG aren't mutually exclusive, you can use both. It's also worth noting
that states aren't the only people attacking TLS: Tor exit nodes like to do it
too. It does trouble me that there's no way to really verify that I have a copy
of Nix that the maintainers have. Right now I check out with an unverified Git
repository which isn't much better either. It'd be nice to at least try to have
verification.
