Crypto is used. It is called TLS.
You have to have some trust of publishing infrastructure, otherwise how do you know your signatures are correct?
TLS is a joke because of X.509.
We dont need to trust any publishing infrastructure because the PGP private keys don't live on the publishing infrastructure. We solved this issue in the 90s
If you think PGP solved anything at all you're living in a fantasy land lol
