I think sq-wot goes a long way to making the web of trust more usable by showing exactly why a binding is considered authentic. I'd be really happy about any feedback on how to make the output more understandable, and ideas for other queries that sq-wot should support.

I just released version 0.2 of Sequoia's Web of Trust engine including its sq-wot CLI. See the README for some examples. (Using your gpg keyring is just a --gpg away.) https://t.co/t1l6bxGrVm

We released v1.2 of the Octopus, an alternate OpenPGP backend for Thunderbird. The primary motivation is to track changes to how Thunderbird uses rnp. Thanks to our users for quickly reporting these changes! The Octopus is now under the LGPL. https://t.co/AeOaOr77St

Recently, the Sequoia team made five short presentations about the future of Sequoia as part of an @NGIZero webinar. (Thanks for that!) For those of you who prefer reading text to watching a video, I've summarized the presentations in a blog post. https://t.co/jAIovHXscD

HEADS UP: The @SequoiaPGP software is now licensed under #LGPL 2.0+ and can thus be used as a library also in proprietary software. Donations are very much appreciated: https://t.co/luRLFEnu2u

I'm a very reluctant (only when correspondent insists, thankfully rarely, because it's onerous) user of encrypted email. The pieces quoted in the blog post below made me feel better about my reluctance. But @nwalfield makes me think making encrypted email better is worthwhile.

Even if email cannot be protected from a powerful state adversary (although, I think tools designed with security in mind rather than bolted on later could), it makes sense to try to improve the status quo based only on defense in depth and harm reduction arguments.
