My PGP Public Key

I use Phil Zimmerman's Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) software to secure my e-mail. You can download my PGP public key from this page, but don't trust it! You must verify that this public key really does belong to me by obtaining a key fingerprint.

I'm happy to place this information on my web site, but ISPs don't guarantee that their sites are secure or proof against tampering (and nor should they). As the PGP documentation says:

No matter how tempted you are -- and you will be tempted -- never, never give in to expediency and trust a public key you downloaded from a bulletin board, unless it is signed by someone you trust. That uncertified public key could have been tampered with by anyone, maybe even by the system administrator of the bulletin board.

You can import my PGP public key by downloading the ASCII-armoured file, or by copying it from the following text block:

Notes

I use PGP version 6.5.8, the international version scanned from the source code book published by Phil Zimmerman. I downloaded the PGP package from the PGP International Home Page maintained by Stale Schumacher <stale@hypnotech.com>.
