I know from people that they use GnuPG 1.4 (Windows) for portability on
a USB stick and therefore it could be run in a native Windows 10
sandbox,
while also running a Tor hidden service in the sandbox, to communicate
encrypted, without relying on third party client/server models via VPS
or
major email providers.
Is it possible to do that with the latest gpg4win?
