A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

PGP doesn't protect anything but message contents. Additionally, if you key it compromised all of your messages are compromised.
Indeed, be careful with choosing your email subject line when using GnuPG to encrypt.
Yes, maybe for some people it is. I once knew a person who created a new GnuPG key every few months. It is also recommended in some howtos that making your key never expire is a bad idea.
By the way, for all readers interested in using GnuPG, FSF updated their Email Self-Defense guide this week. https://hostux.social/@fsf/112405348416810419
