remember how much work was put into the public education part of
looking to the little green lock at the address bar of browsers, and
how long it took for most of the web (even now, not all of it's
https) to switch to https? I'm not even really a developer and I
remember seeing headline after headline, blogpost after blogpost,
begging authors to switch to https -- and even now, it's a patchwork.
I don't want to serve my own stuff in the clear, and if I'm
providing hosting to other people I don't want to serve their stuff
in the clear either. It's just not safe.
That the point about serving public data encrypted while every body can request it?Example:- public domain book- weather (curl wttr.in/paris)- public news- governmental information- cute kitten videos- etc.
Optional PGP signature is enough to provide integrity.
Are you sure that TLS is safe?States are allowing communication they can't decipher?
From my point of view TLS is needed to manage personal data, but not for all the geminispace.
