This may be the perfect tool for the Monero community to stay connected without relying on a single person or group hosting a service.

This may be the perfect tool

Maybe. But that “may” is a big MAY, like @[email protected] commented elsewhere. Even for PGP, so classic and so established, “Are there any back doors in PGP?” is FAQ #1.

Absolutely. The developer seems adamant about it too. Pretty Good Privacy is what PGP stands for and that's the best we can get. Not absolute, not amazing, not extremely good. Pretty good with careful planning can get good enough in most cases. It takes work and it never gets easy sadly.
