> In late July this year, I dealt with what may have been the most catastrophic technical disaster I've ever found myself in & by the skin of my teeth managed to come out on top. This is about a series of unlikely events almost too crazy to be believed. This is the story of how I made a new OpenPGP keypair, got it signed by Richard Stallman himself, deleted my only copy of the private key the next day, & then used what amounted to crude forensic techniques to successfully recover the deleted key material four days later. I'll discuss how I got myself into this mess, how I got myself out, alternative approaches I feel in retrospect could've been somewhat easier, & shocking bugs in GnuPG. Lulz & facepalm moments galore...
