PGP keys signed by me so I don't have to validate the same keys again-and-again and can just trust my own paper verified fingerprint in the subsequent validations.

Example use case for this repository is [Tor Browser](https://torproject.org/),
|
||||
I need to download it on most of systems and I need to verify it and it's
|
||||
painful to verify the PGP key all the time, while I can just verify my own
|
||||
fingerprint from paper and see that it has signed the keys. I have done this
|
||||
at least twice on Windowses first installing GPG through Chocolatey.

I don't know if there is point in putting down formal signing requirements,
|
||||
but what has been my policy at the time of writing is:
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: this section is written from memory so may be inaccurate
|
||||
|
||||
* friends - knowing for a long time through various connections and seeing
|
||||
at times seeing IDs (or visiting both directions) and otherwise having
|
||||
so deep relationship that lying about identity wouldn't be easily possible
|
||||
* privacytools - confirmed from the people themselves, their websites,
|
||||
privacytools.io (WKD in git) and similar.
|
||||
* software - used their verification instructions (of varying strength)
|
||||
* keepassxc.asc mullvad.asc tails.asc tor-browser-developers.asc yggdrasil.asc
|
||||
* keepassxc - checked their website through normal and Tor Browser
|
||||
* mullvad - checked their website and onion
|
||||
* tails - followed their verification instructions (including checking
|
||||
that it's signed by a Debian developer)
|
||||
* tor-browser - followed their checking instructions
|
||||
* yggdrasil - checked their website and comitted apt repo adding to git
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
TODO:
|
||||
|
||||
* add links to the previous section
|
||||
* add OnionShare?
