GNU PGP unsafe easily hacked proof inside

when it asked for pw to decrypt i typed 1 letter at a time and the message started to appear after each letter or number was reconized by GNU as part of the P.W if you have time try to decode a message to yourself and when asked for P.W type 1-9 a-z (one at a time) and press decrypt your message will slowly decrypt for every letter or number entered that is part of the password

Ummmmmm, I don't think so. If you type in the wrong password, it won't decrypt anything at all. Just says wrong password, try again.

It's not the password that actually decrypts pgp messages, it's the private key linked to the password.

Edit: at least that's how it is in Tails, looks like you're using pgp on windows

That isn't even remotely close to how GPG, encryption, or passwords work.

I wonder how many people are gonna pop open their pgp programs and actually try this. Gullible people are gullible
