jochensp | Yad: well your trust chain includes downloading the key from the keyserver, probably over a secure protocol signed with other keys you got from somewhere and so on, all the gnupg does not know and thus issues the warning | 20:34:59 |
jochensp | s/all the/all that/ | 20:36:49 |
jochensp | Yad: but then again the question is where does trust start. Do you trust the certificates in your browser or those in the operating system? Do you trust your computer hardware? | 20:38:37 |
Yad | Indeed, I was already typing: jochensp: ah right, so it's me trusting the HTTPS root certificates probably? (Since that's how I get the fingerprint of the GPG certificate) | 20:39:19 |
jochensp | yes | 20:39:31 |
jochensp | you can tell gnupg about that to remove the warning | 20:39:51 |
Yad | jochensp: Where does trust start? As the security expert Steve Gibson likes to say, it's never truly trust-no-one unless you pick up sand off the beach yourself. (To smelt into silicon wafers, and so on.) | 20:40:02 |
jochensp | yeah :D | 20:40:15 |

Yad | jochensp: My mindfulness about validating the signature of F-Droid is based on, for example, how I managed to avoid the 2016 Linux Mint hack because I get my ISOs from their official BitTorrent torrent, rather than relying on a webserver. https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2994 | 21:08:46 |
jochensp | Yad: nice, I didn't download isos for a long time, just package with apt :) | 21:12:34 |
