How to verify

Verification instructions

1. Confirm the fingerprint

Compare the full fingerprint against an earlier trusted source. Do not trust a key solely because it is linked from this page.

2. Verify a signed message

Import the confirmed public key with gpg --import pgp.asc, then verify a downloaded clearsigned statement with gpg --verify statement.asc.
