Title: WebPG -- PGP
Post by: danny666 on May 23, 2013, 03:46 am
PGP can be a pain in the ass but i found a great browser plugin that can make it much simpler. WebPG allows in-line encryption, decryption and key management from with in any web site! Just enable "Enable Inline formatting of PGP Messages and Keys" in the options and all of you're PGP needs are just clicks away! It's available for firefox and chrome.

I am sharing with the SR community and looking for feed back from any who has used it.

There's a reason why most people use PGP on their computers as opposed to using web services or browser plugins. Anything out on the web is less secure as it's open and everyone has access to it. You have more control over your own computer so it is safer in that sense.

getting pgp running on your machine is a pain in the ass, but keeping it on your own machine is far safer than using a website, which may be very well meaning, but does involve sending the message your are encoding to another website in a non pgp'd form which is inherently less safe imo

WebPG in only a plugin, it does everything local. I looked though the source and it seems legit.

Well that doesn't make it less safer. It's like saying that Google chrome extensions are unable to collect your data or infect your computer which is not true but to each his own I guess.
