if only they had PGPro on their iPhones 

 If iPhone was a thing during Zimmerman's time (when he published a book on how to do PGP to get around munitions regulations), PGPro would be banned from the app store 

 good point, at least it would get more attention 

 we love the zim but pgp's too complicated.

git married itself to gpg, but now gpg has let us use ssh to do our signing AND authentication and it's much simpler.

next generation is gonna use nostr IDs which will be usable for anchoring things to the bitcoin chain and broadcasting across the nostr network.

we all know fiatjaf is a bit of a flake, but what his work proves is that the right answer isn't so far from the naive implementation.

old school devs were so inculcated in the complexity of unix and C that they didn't realise how far it was from human cognition. 

 #PGP was just WAY! ahead of its time. It was the bleeding edge, and in some way still is.

Plus they were all over any one suspected of being a cryptographer like African wild dogs.

It was international, global multiplayer. All of them wanted to know who you were. What you could do.

They were always fearful that anyone, could be the One. That a Satoshi Nakamoto would emerge out of nowhere, and turn the geopolitical calculus on its head lol..🤔😊
