Unless keys and cipher text is encrypted client side with no intervention and the cipher is open source and crc'ed it is tough to have faith.

Then once I share my public key no one will use it.   This leaves me with a great way to sign documents but no privacy

Cool, thanks!

While I haven't found implementation details on the site, the basic scheme can actually work the way they claim. Of course it would be better if we could look at the code that's used client side to make sure there aren't any tricks.
