What I should have added here, is that it's a symmetric relation, and people normally don't like to exclude others, as well. Avoiding others is not a trait of _usual_ _social_ behaviour, and by extension, I argue that encryption might not be compatible with how people normally act or perceive the world around them. It's not an argument against encryption as such, but rather against ubiquitous encryption. I argue that when Johnny doesn't have anything to hide, maybe there are good (social) reasons why he abstains from encrypting, either consciously or unconsciously, not him just being lazy or incapable. -st _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
