Anyone got a working #GPG #git commit signing example for a #macos using #homemanager #nixdarwin
Currently getting the following error:
error: gpg failed to sign the data:
gpg: skipped "$USER": No secret key
Al Gore Invented the Internet.
Joe Biden invented PGP encryption.
Cypherpunks write code.
Joe Biden gifted humanity with PGP encryption (in a roundabout way). Phil Zimmermann created PGP in response to a anti-privacy bill clause proposed by Senator Joe Biden.
https://www.americanscientist.org/article/cypherpunks-write-code
"In 1990, the FBI launched an over-the-top crackdown on computer hackers, known as Operation Sundevil. This was swiftly followed, in early 1991, by a proposed piece of U.S. Senate legislation that would force electronic communications service providers to hand over people’s personal data. (The key clause, S.266, was pushed by the then chairman of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Joe Biden.)"
"On learning of Biden’s S.266 clause, Zimmermann feverishly set out to complete the project, almost losing his house in the process. When he finished his software in 1991, he published it all online, free for anyone who wanted to use it. He called it “Pretty Good Privacy,” or PGP for short, and within weeks it had been downloaded and shared by thousands of people around the world. “Before PGP, there was no way for two ordinary people to communicate over long distances without the risk of interception,” said Zimmermann in a later interview. “Not by phone, not by FedEx, not by fax.” It remains the most widely used form of email encryption to this day."

"SEC. 2201. COOPERATION OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROVIDERS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT. It is the sense of Congress that providers of electronic communications services and manufacturers of electronic communications service equipment shall ensure that communications systems permit the government to obtain the plain text contents of voice, data, and other communications when appropriately authorized by law."

I'm looking for someone who can explain me how I can update my newly extended GPG key in Thunderbird (extended via adduid). I'm getting an unspecified error every time I try to re-add it — or is this unnecessary because the fingerprint remains the same? Also, do I need to update the key on the key server?
Thank you to everyone that has contributed to a free software project.

I'm looking for key management software like #GPG / Kleopatra for use by a school counsellor, for managing key pairs that will encrypt confidential information in various systems.
It _must_ run on WIndows _and_ macOS, and be usable by a tech literate and able social worker. No "install Linux" please - the tech must be as transparent and frictionless as possible.
Lebt eigentlich keybase.io noch? Die sind vor einiger Zeit mal an Zoom verkauft worden und seitdem nix mehr.
Mittlerweile kann ich die Mac-App über Homebrew nicht mehr installieren.
Also, ist es tot? Sollte ich meinen Account löschen?

¿Que condiciones -IMHO- deberia cumplir una instancia de #mastodon y del #fediverso para ser considerada "neutral"?
- aceptar y promocionar el uso de #Tor
- tener una direccion #onion
- promocionar el uso de herramientas de #cifrado como #pgp + #gpg + #gnupg y sus diversos #frontend compatibles con los navegadores
- promocionar la diversidad, pero #FCKNZS
- mejor todavia, tener una direccion #i2p
I configured WKD for trop.in domain, now you can get my gpg key using simple command:
gpg --locate-keys andrew@trop.in
Some mail clients will do it automagically.
More information on WKD and how to configure it here:

Kudos to @proactiveservices and @wiktor for the comments, links, articles and all the help.
What would my options be to replace pgp/gpg. My use case is as follow :
- I sign 90% of the emails I send
- I encrypt one file that I edit using vim and the gpg plugin
If you don't know please boost, it will help make the World more secure.
I see some people still using ancient PGP keys. GnuPG offers Linux repositories for updating to the latest versions of GnuPG with new expert features for key generation. Recent versions support both Kyber1024 and Goldilocks448 keys (and more).
Once installed run: :~$ gpg --full-generate-key --expert
