   But unfortunately this does not prove that they   
   key belongs to a person who claims it belongs to   
   him, if not publicity signed by third parties.   
      
   My yubicrypt certificates, for example, are eIDAS   
   certified, so that the whole world knows the keys   
   belong to me. An advantage IMHO the old PGP WoT   
   does not have.
