Fuck Privnote, go to PGP Club instead.The way to make everybody use PGP, is if you change the buyer's frame of reference. Right now it's usually seen as major drag, a annoying thing that gets in the way of what you want. But, it is easy to make PGP cool! I mean, it's military grade encryption for fuck's sake, how many civilians get to play with military grade anything? There's the spooky mystique aspect to it. Look at how many people love the Mission Impossible movies, books about secret agents etc. Everyone!So... PGP is one of those things James Bond would have in his intellectual toolbox surely.I am convinced that the majority of people who don't use PGP can use PGP, but they are either ignorant of what it means, or they are procrastinating about learning it because it initially seems taxing. But deep down they all know they should learn PGP and become better people as a result etc.It's not enough to have walk-throughs, you need marketing spin, jazz, drama, all that stuff. And peer pressure from your cool SR friends who can't believe you're stuck in the 90s with freaking plaintext... You'll see more PGP Club propaganda in future.PGP Club is relatively successful. With the help of Guru, Louis and a few others we're well on track to teaching the PGP handshake to 100 SR users, about 3/4 of the way there now, only counting those who contacted me directly. If those 100 SR users show just 1 other fellow the operation, then that's 200. In this way you can slowly and organically grow awareness over time in a community. It's not like slotting coins to receive soda, there is no instantaneous change, learning is more like gardening, sometimes a thaw kills your stuff, other times there's a leap forward in growth everywhere. There's no other way to achieve it, this is how learning with groups works. Eventually we'll reach a tipping point, where 51% or so of SR are PGP fluent, and then it'll simply become a defacto standard and our work will be done forever, it'll unfold without prompting.I somewhat fantastically compared this PGP-less situation to how in the Battle of Stalingrad relatively few soldiers were given a rifle, while the others were simply given 1 ammunition clip or nothing at all in the charge against the enemy. However, it's not quite as fantastic a metaphor as it sounds at first. People with PGP fluency are like that solider with the rifle, if it doesn't get passed on, then is not entire enterprise is called into question in the long run? Network resiliency is determined by soft things, like knowing PGP, so I encourage other PGP geeks to leap from the laurels and spring into coming up with creative ways of pushing newbs into PGP threads and such. In particular, at source, where a buyer or vendor is using plaintext.For the Greater Good comrade! An army moves as fast as its slowest solider.
