- I am creating this repo just to upload keys and make them publically avalible.
- I will not hold responsible for any damage made by untrusted files.
- In case of no circumstances, a key should have a validity of 3 years. After the expiration a new key will be released.
- Expired keys will have their backup too for future verification.
