PGP/GPG signing and encrypting files used to be sort of easy using Ubuntu. For a few years I was using a Gedit plugin that allowed me to do it via the clipboard for plain text files, for example. There was also a Nautilus plugin so you could encrypt, decrypt or clear sign anything on your desktop.
But in recent releases, it all seems to have gone back to the command line.
Does anyone know if Ubuntu will ever support strong encryption on the desktop again? It's kinda ironic that with all the NSA stuff going on, Ubuntu seems to be peddling in the opposite direction of freedom and privacy
I mean, yes I have the command-line, but hey it's not 1993.
