If onion keys could be themselves linked in a PGP-like web of trust,

Gah! Too many already used technical terms. By "onion key" I meant here private authentication key associated with the .onion address not private key for authenticating a relay in building a Tor circuit (the prior, hence proper, usage and last vestige of the actual onions giving onion routing its name).

Likewise, when I said "redirect" in my message, I only meant the address rewritten by the HTTPS Everywhere ruleset and not anything else.

I hope that's all the distracting potential terminological confusions. Now people can focus just on the confusions based on things I actually meant to say ;>)

aloha, Paul
