The end result of this will be two things:
(1) People start to realise that the internet is like the newspapers:
and you shouldn't believe all you read in the papers!!!
(2) Internet posters will start to use pgp. This can guarantee the
authenticity of the sender. In cases of posting forgery, the internet posting can be forged, but the pgp signature can not be forged.
Unfortunately, I'm not following my own advice. BUT I'm getting pgp REAL SOON NOW! :)
