		However, Phil argues that this kind of integrity protection is inherently tied to the use of encryption.
		However, Phil points out that it is often the case that a signature cannot be verified because the signing key is not available.

		In 1991 when Zimmermann released the original version of PGP for free over the Internet, his intention was to provide everyday citizens for the first time in history with a way to safeguard their communications from the prying eyes of Big Brother.

	GrepLaw \| Conversation With Phil Zimmermann
		Mr Zimmermann introduced me to his sharp mind by telling me the story of an interview he gave once, where the resulting transcript turned out to be more interesting than the actual quotes.
		Mr Zimmermann may have good reason to be concerned with police cars, considering the criminal investigation he was subject to for three years, but he was actually saying that he was concerned with fingerprint scanners in police cars.
		If Phil would have released PGP under a Free Software license, there would have been no need for me to spend most of my time (and I don't mean spare-time or weekends) to create and maintain GnuPG [gnupg.org] as a free (as in freedom) replacement of PGP.
