Let's not pull out silly examples. Of course you can find locations
that lack Internet.
Those locations are completely unsuitable to bitcoin transactions,
since the receiver cannot verify double-spending or anything else
about the transaction.

The usual issue is that they lack internet *for some customers*. The place
may well have private wifi or hardwired connections that

If you're using PGP to verify Bitcoin downloads, it's very important that
you check you are using the right key. Someone seems to be creating fake
PGP keys that are used to sign popular
Please, by all means: ignore our well-reasoned arguments about
externalized storage and validation cost and alternative solutions.
Please re-discover how proof of publication doesn't require burdening
the network with silly extra data that must be transmitted, kept, and
validated from now until
Jeff, there are *plenty* of places that lack local Internet access for
one or both participants.
Obviously making the case where both participants lack access to the
bitcoin network is difficult to secure, but not impossible (e.g. use a
telephany-based system to connect to a centralized
One participant, yes. Two participants lacking net would require a
serious revisit of BIP 70's security assumptions and some design, at a
minimum.

I think it's mostly a UI issue. The recipient needs to understand that what
he received is nothing more than an IOU that can be revoked at any time. If
the UI makes it clear and the user trusts the sender, no problem. BIP70
would work as before.

Yes, the -setup.exe installers are Authenticode (or whatever Microsoft is
calling that these days) code-signed.

I know that general approach to interaction design in Bitcoin assumes
minimal to no difference between payer and payee, and generally I agree
with this approach.
However, for the sake of my PoS development this assumption is wrong by
