From http://web.monkeysphere.info/: « The Monkeysphere project's goal is to extend OpenPGP's web of trust to new areas of the Internet to help us securely identify servers we connect to, as well as each other while we work online. The suite of Monkeysphere utilities provides a framework to transparently leverage the web of trust for authentication of TLS/SSL communications through the normal use of tools you are familiar with, such as your web browser or secure shell. » In short: it can be used to authenticate a website using OpenPGP instead of just a commercial certificate. > Can it safely be removed? I don't know. But does it hurt? If you want to make sure it doesn't hurt, you'd have to run the test suite against a modified version of Tails without Monkeysphere: https://tails.boum.org/contribute/release_process/test/
