What do you kind folks out there make of comments at
https://stallman.org/gpg.html
>"I'm told that key servers carry many phony keys claiming to be
mine. Here is info about which keys are really mine."
>"Of course, to be really sure which key is mine, you need to get my
key fingerprint from me or follow a chain of signatures. If a phony
key appears to be signed by someone you trust, you should see what's
up with that person."
and 4th sentence from the top at
https://stallman.org
>"If you want to send me GPG-encrypted mail, do not trust key servers!
Some of them have phony keys under my name and email address, made by
someone else as a trick. See gpg.html for my real key."
