100 Bulk surveillance violates our fundamental rights and makes free speech
101 risky. This guide will teach you a basic surveillance self-defense skill: email
102 encryption. Once you've finished, you'll be able to send and receive emails
103 that are scrambled to make sure a surveillance agent or thief intercepting
104 your email can't read them. All you need is a computer with an Internet
105 connection, an email account, and about forty minutes.
</p>
107 <p>Even if you have nothing to hide, using encryption helps protect the privacy
108 of people you communicate with, and makes life difficult for bulk surveillance
109 systems. If you do have something important to hide, you're in good company;
110 these are the same tools that whistleblowers use to protect their identities
111 while shining light on human rights abuses, corruption and other crimes.
</p>
113 <p>In addition to using encryption, standing up
114 to surveillance requires fighting politically for a
<a
115 href=
"http://gnu.org/philosophy/surveillance-vs-democracy.html">reduction
116 in the amount of data collected on us
</a>, but the essential first step is
117 to protect yourself and make surveillance of your communication as difficult
118 as possible. This guide helps you do that. It is designed for beginners, but
119 if you already know the basics of GnuPG or are an experienced free software
120 user, you'll enjoy the advanced tips and the

141 <p>Most GNU/Linux operating systems come with GnuPG installed on them,
142 so you don't have to download it. Before configuring GnuPG though, you'll
143 need the IceDove desktop email program installed on your computer. Most
144 GNU/Linux distributions have IceDove installed already, though it may be

171 when you're setting up your account. If you don't see them, you will still
172 be able to use encryption, but this means that the people running your email
173 system are running behind the industry standard in protecting your security
174 and privacy. We recommend that you send them a friendly email asking them
175 to enable SSL, TLS, or STARTTLS for your email server. They will know what
176 you're talking about, so it's worth making the request even if you aren't

2</em> Make your keys
</h2>
269 <p>To use the GnuPG system, you'll need a public key and a private key (known
270 together as a keypair). Each is a long string of randomly generated numbers
271 and letters that are unique to you. Your public and private keys are linked
272 together by a special mathematical function.
</p>
274 <p>Your public key isn't like a physical key, because it's stored in the open
275 in an online directory called a keyserver. People download it and use it,
276 along with GnuPG, to encrypt emails they send to you. You can think of the
277 keyserver as a phonebook; people who want to send you encrypted email can
278 look up your public key.
</p>
280 <p>Your private key is more like a physical key, because you keep it to
281 yourself (on your computer). You use GnuPG and your private key together to
282 descramble encrypted emails other people send to you.
<span style=
"font-weight:
283 bold;">You should never share you private key with anyone, under any
284 circumstances.
</span></p>
286 <p>In addition to encryption and decryption, you can also use these keys to
287 sign messages and check the authenticity of other people's signatures. We'll
288 discuss this more in the next section.

305 <p>The Enigmail Setup wizard may start automatically. If it doesn't, select

→ Setup Wizard from your email program's menu. You don't need
307 to read the text in the window that pops up unless you'd like to, but it's
308 good to read the text on the later screens of the wizard. Click Next with
309 the default options selected, except in these instances, which are listed
310 in the order they appear:
</p>
313 <li>On the screen titled
"Encryption," select
"Encrypt all of my messages
314 by default, because privacy is critical to me."</li>
316 <li>On the screen titled
"Signing," select
"Don't sign my messages by
319 <li>On the screen titled
"Key Selection," select
"I want to create a new
320 key pair for signing and encrypting my email."</li>
322 <li>On the screen titled
"Create Key," pick a strong password! You can
323 do it manually, or you can use the Diceware method. Doing it manually
324 is faster but not as secure. Using Diceware takes longer and requires
325 dice, but creates a password that is much harder for attackers to figure
326 out. To use it, read the section
"Make a secure passphrase with Diceware" in
<a
327 href=

328 this article
</a> by Micah Lee.
</li>
331 <p>If you'd like to pick a password manually, come up with something
332 you can remember which is at least twelve characters long, and includes
333 at least one lower case and upper case letter and at least one number or
334 punctuation symbol. Never pick a password you've used elsewhere. Don't use
335 any recognizable patterns, such as birthdays, telephone numbers, pets' names,
336 song lyrics, quotes from books, and so on.
</p>
338 <p class=
"notes">The program will take a little while to finish the next
339 step, the
"Key Creation" screen. While you wait, do something else with your
340 computer, like watching a movie or browsing the Web. The more you use the
341 computer at this point, the faster the key creation will go.

518 <h3><em>Step
3.a
</em> Send Edward your public key
</h3>
520 <p>This is a special step that you won't have to do when corresponding
521 with real people. In your email program's menu, go to Enigmail
→ Key
522 Management. You should see your key in the list that pops up. Right click
523 on your key and select Send Public Keys by Email. This will create a new
524 draft message, as if you had just hit the Write button.
</p>
526 <p>Address the message to
<a
527 href=
"mailto:edward-en@fsf.org">edward-en@fsf.org
</a>. Put at least one word
528 (whatever you want) in the subject and body of the email. Don't send yet.
</p>
530 <p>The lock icon in the top left should be yellow, meaning encryption is
531 turned on. We want this first special message to be unencrypted, so
532 click the icon once to turn it off. The lock should become grey, with a
533 blue dot on it (to alert you that the setting has been changed from the
534 default). Once encryption is off, hit Send.
</p>
536 <p class=

537 respond. In the meantime, you might want to skip ahead and check out the
<a

539 head to the next step. From here on, you'll be doing just the same thing as
540 when corresponding with a real person.

732 <h2><em>#
4</em> Learn the Web of Trust
</h2>
734 <p>Email encryption is a powerful technology, but it has a weakness;
735 it requires a way to verify that a person's public key is actually
736 theirs. Otherwise, there would be no way to stop an attacker from making
737 an email address with your friend's name, creating keys to go with it and
738 impersonating your friend. That's why the free software programmers that
739 developed email encryption created keysigning and the Web of Trust.
</p>
741 <p>When you sign someone's key, you are publicly saying that you've verified
742 that it belongs to them and not someone else.
</p>
744 <p>Signing keys and signing messages use the same type of mathematical
745 operation, but they carry very different implications. It's a good practice
746 to generally sign your email, but if you casually sign people's keys, you
747 may accidently end up vouching for the identity of an imposter.
</p>
749 <p>People who use your public key can see who has signed it. Once you've
750 used GnuPG for a long time, your key may have hundreds of signatures. You
751 can consider a key to be more trustworthy if it has many signatures from
752 people that you trust. The Web of Trust is a constellation of GnuPG users,
753 connected to each other by chains of trust expressed through signatures.

→ Key
813 Management in your email program's menu, then right clicking on the key
814 and choosing Key Properties. It's good practice to share your fingerprint

816 they have the correct public key when they download yours from a keyserver.

818 <p class=

819 key ID. This key ID is visible directly from the Key Management
820 window. These eight character key IDs were previously used for
821 identification, which used to be safe, but is no longer reliable. You
822 need to check the full fingerprint as part of verifying you have the
823 correct key for the person you are trying to contact. Spoofing, in

837 <p>Before signing a person's key, you need to be confident that it actually

839 confidence comes from having interactions and conversations with them over
840 time, and witnessing interactions between them and others. Whenever signing
841 a key, ask to see the full public key fingerprint, and not just the shorter
842 key ID. If you feel it's important to sign the key of someone you've just
843 met, also ask them to show you their government identification, and make
844 sure the name on the ID matches the name on the public key. In Enigmail,
845 answer honestly in the window that pops up and asks

901 <h3>When should I encrypt? When should I sign?
</h3>
903 <p>The more you can encrypt your messages, the better. If you only encrypt
904 emails occasionally, each encrypted message could raise a red flag for
905 surveillance systems. If all or most of your email is encrypted, people
906 doing surveillance won't know where to start. That's not to say that only
907 encrypting some of your email isn't helpful -- it's a great start and it
908 makes bulk surveillance more difficult.
</p>
910 <p>Unless you don't want to reveal your own identity (which requires other
911 protective measures), there's no reason not to sign every message, whether or
912 not you are encrypting. In addition to allowing those with GnuPG to verify
913 that the message came from you, signing is a non-intrusive way to remind
914 everyone that you use GnuPG and show support for secure communication. If you
915 often send signed messages to people that aren't familiar with GnuPG, it's
916 nice to also include a link to this guide in your standard email signature
917 (the text kind, not the cryptographic kind).
