A sends:

Re your attempt to pick a valid PGP key for Wikileaks. They have always had a weird outlook on the use of PGP and digital signatures. Some of it is just pure drivel. In addition to this their procedures and key management skills appear to be very basic to say the least. FYI below:

http://wikileaks.org/wiki/Wikileaks_talk:PGP_Keys#Wikileaks_no_longer_using_PGP_.3F_How_can_the_
wikileaks_editorial_team_be_contacted_privately_without_PGP_.3F

[Excerpt from the URL added by Cryptome:]

WikiLeaks talk:PGP Keys

Wikileaks no longer using PGP? How can the wikileaks editorial team be contacted privately without PGP?

How can the wikileaks editorial team be contacted privately without using PGP?

If there was a "No Publish" option in the document submission forms, then it could perhaps be used to contact the wikileaks editorial team via SSL and / or Tor encryption.

However, as it stands, there must be a worry that what you thought was a private message, would end up being automatically, or semi-automatically, published to the world using this method.

What exactly is so difficult about publishing a PGP key as before ?

PGP Keys will be provided soon again. For now Wikileaks is missing a sound and user-friendly guide for usage of PGP that will make sure users contacting use with this method make no mistakes that could compromise them. Individual PGP keys for editors still exist and are available on request.

The situation as of now is purely an issue of lack of time to address the writing of proper guidelines for Average Joe, which we perceive as being fundamental to publishing a PGP key for the masses. A volunteer is currently addressing this issue, but we can still only encourage anyone with an interest in this topic to help producing these guidelines. It is easy to author something on this portal, please just go ahead and help out.

An alternative meanwhile can be contacting us via the Chat which is SSL encrypted. Wikileaks 17:36, 22 September 2008 (GMT)
