Eh Thawte has been bought by Verislime, so there really is no more reason to

I just found the following site when trying to
get a certificate to sign
my mails: http://www.thawte.com
Does anybody know / use this service? Is there a risk to enter my ID
Card No.?
Thawte is one of the bigger names in the certificates business.
The risk there should be lower than with Verislime, unless they
got bought up. Why would you want to use them for email signing? It
makes sense
for e-business websites, as most browsers can check those signatures
right away, but for email I'd prefer PGP/GnuPG.

If somebody on this list already uses this
service, could he/she then
notarize my ID?
If you generate your own PGP/GnuPG key, we'll happily sign it.
Here you'll find the presentation that Alexandre Dulaunoy made
for LiLux a while ago:
