Local PGP Browser support

Website: https://github.com/x0th/Local-PGP The extension uses OpenPGP.js (https://openpgpjs.org/) for everything associated with cryptography. Note: The extension's security is limited by it being local and browser-operated. Always keep a backup of stored keys somewhere secure.

Features

The extension allows you to encrypt and decrypt messages with PGP in-browser as opposed to by using a mailing client. You can store your PGP keys directly in-browser for the purpose of decryption. If you do not have PGP keys, you can generate them in the extension. Remember to also store them elsewhere for backup. You can keep an 'address book' of known public keys for encryption purposes. Want to decrypt a message fast? After selecting an encrypted PGP message, right-click anywhere on the page and choose Decrypt to decrypt instantly! Feature customizable in settings. Don't like such information being stored in a browser? You can tweak storage settings in the extension options.

User reviews

Wanted to add existing key, while copy-pasting the popup would disappear every time, ofcourse. Had to inspect the popup to keep it open the whole time.
