He specifically points out that you should encrypt your emails.

[sh1mmer → tomjen]

You encrypt them, but then how does anyone decrypt them? Do you have to pre-brief "normal" people about how to use PGP?

It would be nice if there was a service that you could actually trust that would store the information in an encrypted file but then allow the correct people to access it.

[PStamatiou → sh1mmer]

Well in that case you setup another identical email-loved-ones-when-i-die service to send a PGP key and passphrase.
