   @mangeurdenuage And then if you lose your key and people keep sending you encrypted emails you'd better have a backup. Joe Shmoe won't.

     Very interesting thought: just use SSH for everything.

     The same question goes for pgp
     why isn't it used everywhere ?

     @mangeurdenuage Except the key is useless unless your friends trust it and they won't know WTH you're talking about.

     @mangeurdenuage And let's not talk about keeping a proper cold master key and generating a hot subkey that you can replace if exposed.

     This is indeed true
     But we have to start somewhere, no ?
     We know that people have a priority and it's not being responsible of their data they prefer to chat and exchange information until someone fucks them.
     This is something that isn't normal, a simple letter from a post office is more secure than a email.
     Their will be always some people who care or are forced to care because they have being pwnd.
     When I say mandatory I'm just jocking about that I don't want some totalitarian overlord imposing something on me or others.
     But if we go in the way "it's impossible to make people change their mind" we have already lost.
     
     Sure you rage internally each time someone says "it's too difficult" or "I din dun nothing" and you look the pc is completely fucked up or "I have nothing to hide" or "I just want it to work like before" (aka= went it was garbage) because you know that these attitudes is fucking up everything and all you want is that they die so that the world can work normally.

     @mangeurdenuage Usability is the key to ubiquitous crypto. Unfortunately the people who are working to fix that are compromising on freedom.
