Ok I will address this one more time. Though I have about 200 times in the last 16 months. Using pgp to send a message is secure in the sense you said. Meaning you are 100% correct that only someone with your key can READ the message. And everyone would assume only you know your key and you do not have it written down anywhere. I don't disagree with that at all. BUT I am ONLY talking about using pgp for Addresses. The fact is that I HAVE to read it and write it down, and that is where the security risk is. Once I open it, then it is just like anything else without PGP. And ALL of the people that preach pgp are doing so based on the fact that one day SR will get compromised and if you do not use pgp for your address, then your address will be on the servers.( I do not believe that) BUT....THAT IS IT! And I agree that if you use pgp for your address when placing an order that yes indeed your address will never be on SR in anyway. I for one do not think SR will get compromised. And if I am wrong, and it is, then I do not think an address means anything. In fact I KNOW it does not. Not one person would ever get prosecuted or have anything happen to them based on an address found somewhere on the darknet. The fact is, the security threat for the buyer will not be protected in ANY WAY with PGP. It gives a total false sense of security. And actually adds nothing. I will give you an actual case where it is useless. Unlike the so called Guru's on here that always say what if...I will tell you what happened. So these idiots always say to only use a vendor with pgp. O.k, fair enough, so you believe their total bullshit and you do that and you believe you are totally safe. Now what happens when that vendor that uses PGP decides to write every address down and save them? How did your pgp help you there? It did not!!! It did nothing for you. And that lies the problem with pgp. The fact is that pgp gives buyers a false sense of security and offers no true security. If you want REAL security as a buyer, then you should only deal with a vendor that would never do something so stupid(as to keep anything at all ever) a vendor that has proven over a long period of time that they should be trusted, and a vendor that knows what the fuck he is doing. A PROFESSIONAL. But there are ALWAYS going to be security risk, and the fact is we have to send drugs through some sort of mail, and that is hands down the biggest security threat. As a package with drugs in it with your name on it...it a lot bigger threat then an address on a some server from 5 months ago. The real and only risk for a buyer is when you get the package. It is all about the package. If a vendor gets pulled over going to the post office and they find all his packages, does PGP help you? If a vendor writes everything down and has a drug house....does pgp help you? If the vendor you use, is a druggie himself and been in trouble before, would you want him with your address??? Does pgp protect you from them? I could go it to a lot more detail but this is not the place, and any one with a brain would understand what I mean when I say that PGP is WORHTLESS. All that matters is the person that is opening the pgp. Worry about that guy.
