It is pointless. My point is that even if you use GPG on network computer, it is a risk that you get compromised. I don't remember if it was StaxNEt that was making screenshots of your mobile display and sending them home for further analyses and this was may be 10y ago. Today with the one and only iPhone and Android ... even with encrypted whatever part. The best way is 1. download the encrypted message (usb/SD or uSD) 2. upload to isolated machine 3. decrypt, read, answer, encrypt 4. upload encrypted message to the networked machine (usb/SD or uSD) Note: all keys on the isolated machine (especially the private keys) This worked 30-40y ago, works also now (well back then it was a floppy drive). I am writing it, because people get lazy but in the same time wine about privacy. On the battle field (or in the jungle) if you are lazy, you die. It should be clear that even with the best security network it still may get compromised. And if you are stupid, nothing can help you anyway :)

In hindsight, what was meant as a joke probably came out as mocking, I apologise for that. I'm sure you do know that the public key needs to be made available for others to be able to send you encrypted messages. Of course the *primary* private key should be protected properly. A Debian recommendation (that I can't find) was suggesting to generate and keep it on a Tails USB stick and use it only for certifying other keys. Day to day work (messages, signing packages, etc.) should be done with sub-keys instead. Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser

Yes, I recall this from the past. So basically there are two use cases here. What I was reffering to is cases like Snowden or Assange or some investigative journalists who do not survive like Navalni and are not Russians ;-). You are reffering to cases in the public domain, but IMO here it works perfectly well (signing packages or similar) In the use case I reffer to one should take care of his/her life. Exchanging keys via public domain is not what I would do and even so - it was proven "they" are capturing your screen (after you decrypted) and sending it home for further analyses. In the public domain I do not see how the avg. Joe would manage it to stay safe. It is impossible ... most do not care, do not understand or do not have the capacity. I would not bother unless they have the right to vote - and yes they do and so determine your future. So to jump to the conclusion - this form of democracy is counter productive and we should have open debate regarding some better form of democracy - lets say next generation democracy. (Covid-19 also showed that a more totalitarian/military style approach gives better results - and I do not mean China here).

Well, Navalny isn't an investigative journalist, he's just an agitator. And, word is, he's a CIA asset, so you're right in he isn't Russian, either. He got it lucky: I thought he'd wind up in Black Dolphin, or similar, but he got a really easy gig in a work camp, not far from Moscow. > You are reffering to cases in the public domain, but IMO here it works > perfectly well (signing packages or similar) > In the use case I reffer to one should take care of his/her life.

I was in China at the time, and it was far from `totalitarian/militant'. The people just played it smart, as they also did in New Zealand, which was also not `totalitarian/militant'. Cheers!

Everytime I write in public about it, I fear, although I am in a western democratic country.

For example I find it good that in the EU food manufactureres are obliged to write the content on the package. You then decide if you buy and eat or not. It is amazing to me that these products still sell - something called food and does not have anything to do with food.

Well, they are brain washed - in a sense they know that it is impossible to stand up against and also might be not wise, because proven is the fact they manage things better than neighbor India or developed Europe. I wanted to avoid being criticized for praising China.

Obviously never been there. The Chinese cops are the friendliest I've ever come across. Nobody there has any hesitation in going to them with a problem. They see themselves as public servants, which is a perception that doesn't live in many westernised countries any more. If you need directions or advice, go to them: most of them have a translation app on their smart phones, and they'll set you right and do it with a smile. If you want governmental corruption, go to India. There's so much back-pocket business going on there, it's a whole new industry and, arguably, India's largest. Developed Europe? What would you call that? Macron's France or Merkel's Germany? > china do better , because all bad news are hidden by communist > leadership Garbage! There's an extremely active anti-corruption drive happening in China. Politicians found guilty of it get heavy prison sentences, at best, and often a death sentence. China now has lifted its entire population above poverty level. It's lauded by the World Bank as an unprecedented achievement. > term Chinese government is quite misleading > it's used as if it's same as other legitimate government, i.e. > elected by people It was.

The moment you speak out (Assange, Snowden and many many others) it is the same as China. China is bad, but the illusion of democracy we live in here is even worse.

I feel more free in China and Russia than I ever did on multiple trips to the U.S. I've been there half a dozen times to attend and speak at conferences. The last time, I wasn't even going there, just passing through. Waiting at L.A. International for a connecting flight. I was required (there was no option) to provide a retinal scan and undergo fingerprinting. A number of us were subjected to this. Note: we weren't in the country, had no intention of entering the U.S., and were all citizens of other (friendly) countries. This was in the days pre-TSA. I have never been there since, and never will. I check out all flights - I do a substantial amount of travelling - and if there's a U.S. connection involved, I choose a different route. The land of the free? Bullshit! The only ones who sincerely believe that have no point of comparison. I have had in depth discussions on any subject you care to name in both Russia and China. I really can't recall discussing political issues in the U.SW.: in those days I was simply too busy. I have never been subjected to treatment like that in either China or Russia. Cheers!

Yes. But, once there, far better to learn the language. The resultant experience is well worth it. The money is not the same, but the cost of living is much lower. Cheers!
