The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Only if we forget about public keys, since encryption and
signatures with public keys use the same algorithms and code.
The difference between encryption and signing is whether you
use the recipient's public key, or your own secret key. The
rest is identical, save for trivial differences like the type
indicators in PGP output.

Better way to handle this: those living in police states (France
and Russia, I think) won't use PGP, and won't be able to verify
signatures. We can publish official MD5 lists on the web site
for them (not perfect, but better than nothing).
