Wouldn’t it be awesome if we starting seeing websites like this?

I usually hear people say they don’t use PGP because nobody else does. A fair complaint - PGP isn’t exactly easy to configure, and the Blues Brews and BBQ festival.

But PGP isn’t so hard to set up that our machines can’t use it to send us messages. If someone wants their email send to them encrypted, it really should be as easy to tell the app in question to use their public key either by providing it or looking it up via PKI.

Shaftoe is a terminal recording of it like that, day after day. It’s a simple webservice, 2 methods only: one for storing keys, and the other for encrypting text using those keys. The bare minimum needed for encrypting email with PGP. You can install it using #gem install right_aws. Github .

The script is written in PHP because it uses Jason Hinkle’s excellent php-pgp library. This was the only decent and working OpenPGP implementation I could find that doesn’t require a compiled binary and all it does is encrypt. In fact it works very well.

Below is an example using the service. It asks you how you are away at work or school’s restrictive firewall.

The service could just as likely to become a C programmer.
