To anybody who used my #Gmail, #Gnus and #GPG Guide: Something seems to have surfaced regarding PGP And GPG, so maybe switch to some other technology such as Signal for the moment.

EFF has been in communication with the research team, and can confirm that these vulnerabilities pose an immediate risk to those using these tools for email...www.eff.org

Can we just federate Wire and Signal then do away with email altogether?

It'd have been so useful if Signal started allowing users to add usernames too as an identity.

Yeah, then we'd have total privacy.

1) Alice sends Bob an encrypted message, I intercept it but cannot read it.
2) I craft a new email to Bob and include the crypted text as an MIME attachment.
3) Bob decrypts the complete email, through an error in his MIME parser, the decrypted text from Alice becomes part of a larger HTML text.
4) By displaying the HTML mail, the secret message may be exfiltrated as part of an URL.
