I never suggested otherwise.  Those that have an interest will find out=20
the information, and those that are not computer illiterate will be=20
able to put it into practice.  Personally, I find GPG, PGP and S/MIME=20
all easy to use.  When I explain how to use these systems to others I=20
find a (very) small minority that understand the concept but do not=20
wish to use them.  Fair enough, that is the freedom to chose what you=20
want to do.

But more prevalent are the users (mainly Windows users that this applies=20
to) that can't be bothered and have no interest in finding out.

Its a pity, but this is my experience.
