Re: Idea: How to exchange Emails outside the forum, without giving up opsec
It's just quick, clean, easy approach, which applies to all other platforms.
Same as PGP keys. Just post your public PGP key once, and anyone can send you encrypted information which only you can read across any medium they choose - email, PMs, instant messaging, chat rooms, Facebook messenger, Twitter comments, forum posts, you name it. Even better is that you can verify it came from the person you think it did by using their PGP key, with no need to have them message you over a different medium with a random string of characters.True, but i don't want anyone to send me information. I pick a certain user on a public channel (news comment thread), make sure it's him/her that sends me his email address and then i can send my pgp pubkey to this one via "permanent" email for future communication. I don't have PM available on all channels and there's the advantage.
If i post a pubkey on more than one public channel, then there's a traceable connection. I avoid all of this by the ten-minute-mail-randomstring "method".
The idea behind this is not too hard to grasp
