Subject: Re: [unSYSTEM] Charged over encryption software
I wasn't saying something is wrong with GPG per say. But since you mention
it: The problem with GPG over email is really just the complication. It is not
easy enough for a child or granny so not everyone uses it. The protocol is
great, but needs to be merged into the messaging layer itself to solve the
problem I mention.

What I was more taking about is email. Let us agree/work upon building a
unified p2p messaging standard to replace it. When standardized and started to
be implemented across p2p systems, it will win out because it is inherently
better in that it is private when no non p2p can be. It is uncensorable, Etc.
It can be spam resistant with POW, Etc.

When the world relies on such a thing for everyday tasks, it will be more
difficult to take away encryption.
