Routinely encrypting *all* communications would transform the "chore" into an habitual routine that requires little-to-no intellectual effort in respect of each individual message sent or file stored. The value of the encryption would then greatly exceed the effort. In a surprisingly short time, the "burden" of which you speak would become barely noticeable. - -- Best regards MFPA mailto:expires2...@rocketmail.com Dreams come true on this side of the Rainbow too! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQCVAwUBUGyx4aipC46tDG5pAQqkdwQAtRmAean0DbFLkCtgq/pcgaFHALiZFvi+ 03nJNZL9dBNqG9hEiknOYNYF8qiGOdhzElX/Ht9kW4KrwEd5V9G9RhL+47J1TvVS G96iWqp91ekglvy3MQKvL7MwEw6uVtCO6bpi1Y8ltWRSvHmtQORci2XeKyJZxtQq Z34rtpxnclk= =K9xU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
