-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 I'm now confused about creating a separate subkey for encrypting, as opposed to creating one keypair that signs and encrypts. The example I've seen around is that if you're set up the subkey way and the police demand the private part of your key, you don't have to sacrifice your primary key, which carries all your signatures. (I hope I said that correctly.)
Well, I understood that as meaning I would have separate passphrases for the subkey and the primary key: Apparently, that's not possible. So then how would this police scenario play out? If supposing then that TSA or some entity forces me to give up my passphrase for decryption purposes, then I've compromised everything, no?
