I'm wondering about this aspect of the business card, as there's a question
about making the full fingerprint an option.
I can understand having the GPG key on a card, but the purpose of having
something the length of a full fingerprint on a business card escapes me.
Would there be a good reason for to have a full fingerprint?
You cannot validate an imported key without having access to the full
fingerprint. You should always validate the key's fingerprint with the
key's owner before signing it. You can call the person or use some
other means, it is convenient for people if it is just on the card.
