#PGP/#GPG keeps on giving
#SigStore / #PyPI attestations: #PGP is hard! We must invent a new signing scheme that's so much easier on users.
The tools, after I've spent hours *integrating* them into #Gentoo, and getting them working for everything before:
* Verifying google_auth-2.46.0.tar.gz ...
Provenance signed by a Google Cloud account, but no service account provided; use '--gcp-service-account'
Yeah, I'm sure that's *so much simpler* than PGP.

Someone needs to make a flowchart for this.
#PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is the proprietary tool. The open standard developed from it is called #OpenPGP. This standard was implemented by a tool called #GPG (GNU Privacy Guard), who took up the development of the standard, until they've decided they don't like where others are pushing it, so they've forked the standard into #LibrePGP. Then GPG was forked into #FreePG to bring (newer) OpenPGP into it.
