<p>Most GNU/Linux operating systems come with GnuPG installed on them, so you don't have to download it. Before configuring GnuPG though, you'll need the IceDove desktop email program installed on your computer. Most GNU/Linux distributions have IceDove installed already, though it may be under the alternate name "Thunderbird." Email programs are another way to access the same email accounts you can access in a browser (like Gmail), but provide extra features.</p>
<p>If you already have an email program, you can skip to <a href="#step-1b">Step 1.b</a>.</p>
<li>On the screen titled "Encryption," select "Encrypt all of my messages by default, because privacy is critical to me."</li>
<li>On the screen titled "Signing," select "Don't sign my messages by default."</li>
<li>On the screen titled "Key Selection," select "I want to create a new key pair for signing and encrypting my email."</li>
- <li><p>On the screen titled "Create Key," pick a strong password! You can do it manually, or you can use the Diceware method. Doing it manually is faster but not as secure. Using Diceware takes longer and requires dice, but creates a password that is much harder for attackers figure out. To use it, read the section "Make a secure passphrase with Diceware" in <a href="https://theintercept.com/2015/03/26/passphrases-can-memorize-attackers-cant-guess/">this article</a> by Micah Lee.</p>

<p>If you'd like to pick a password manually, come up with something you can remember which is at least twelve characters long, and includes at least one lower case and upper case letter and at least one number or punctuation symbol. Never pick a password you've used elsewhere. Don't use any recognizable patterns, such as birthdays, telephone numbers, pets' names, song lyrics, quotes from books, and so on.</p>
<h3>Webmail and GnuPG</h3>
<p>When you use a web browser to access your email, you're using webmail, an email program stored on a distant website. Unlike webmail, your desktop email program runs on your own computer. Although webmail can't decrypt encrypted email, it will still display it in its encrypted form. If you primarily use webmail, you'll know to open your email client when you receive a scrambled email.</p>

<h2><em>#2</em> Plan The Workshop</h2>
- <p>Once you've got at least one interested friend, pick a date and start planning out the workshop. Tell participants to bring their computer and ID (for signing each other's keys). If you'd like to make it easy for the participants to use Diceware for choosing passwords, get a pack of dice beforehand. Make sure the location you select has an easily accessible Internet connection, and make backup plans in case the connection stops working on the day of the workshop.

<p>The success of the workshop requires understanding and catering to the unique backgrounds and needs of each group of participants. Workshops should stay small, so that each participant receives more individualized instruction. If more than a handful of people want to participate, keep the facilitator to participant ratio high by recruiting more facilitators, or by facilitating multiple workshops. Small workshops among friends work great!</p>
