I recently have been playing around with GPG (its pretty fun!) And decided to make a hat with my public key on it!

Its a fun conversation starter at walmart, when somebody asks what it is? It activates my tism, and i get to talk about computer science! Its also important to teach others the importants of encryption especially as of one day ago the EFF made a post talking about yet another bill trying to go after encryption.

The keen eyed among you see i have blocked out certain parts of my key, this is because i have a key for this hat exclusively and would like to see if anybody i talk to about encryption in real life bothers to email me. I know its not much but i enjoy it!

I laser etched the leather, and hand stitched it to the hat.

I know this is more kinda clothing stuff, but it just didnt feel right posting a hat with a gpg key on a fasion/clothing community.

Hope you enjoy My little project >:) hehe

      I think the whole key is more of a conversation starter than just QR code. We all know what they are and dont ask people questions aboit them.
