The more I think about Senator Leahy's public key, the more I keep coming back to a point I only alluded to before.
How do we know the key is actually his key?
The key is only self signed. It could be a fake. If, as I have assumed, its primary use will be to sign public statements posted to the net, how will we know they are actually from Senator Leahy, and not some impostor?
I strongly urge the senator to join the web of trust and get some other signatures on his key.
I'll visit his office and ask if he wants he key signed this week.
