PK works, as for example SSH.

PKI is not working, and if it was ever going to work, we

The problem with the "I" in PKI is illustrated by the

: :	Alice introduces her son to Libby by telling
: :	Libby that her son is named "Jon". Libby then
: :	looks around for someone who claims to be
: :	named "Jon". Upon finding such a person,
: :	Libby asks the person for their driver's
: :	license, to confirm that the person's name is
: :	indeed "Jon".
