Interesting idea. How would you go about simple authentication to prevent spoofing since PGP/GPG is too difficult to explain?

I don't know about that - I was able to get my dad (not a tech-geek by any means) to understand it enough to start using it very easily.

The Web of Trust may be harder to explain, but you don't need to take advantage of the Web of Trust in order to get value out of PGP/GPG signatures...
