majster

What you wrote is only partially true because people of USA and Israel have influence on their domestic&foreign policy with democracy that they enjoy.

People also don’t understand IP, TCP, DNS, TLS etc. and yet can use programs that use all of that. I find e2ee still pretty cumbersome in the long run.

I read the post, its very exhaustive and future seems promising. I might have missed the section but why it this separate mechanism needed in the first place? Is it just because of the key lifecycle management? If so, naiive approach of publishing public key on your profile falls short because of this and without public key management everything falls apart sooner than later?
