I wonder if there have been any attempts to map #Cryptography terminology to common parlance, and avoid crypto terms in discussions and in software interfaces.
To attest content, the "self-attesting" key is used. Others verify your attestation on content using your published "verification" key. #WebOfTrust doesn't need to enter the discussion until a common use-case pops up. #PGP
@tetrislife I've done this many times for friends/family. In the community at large though the language becomes something of an intentional gate: you aren't part of the group if you don't speak crypto. Unfortunate, in my opinion, but unavoidably human.
