Show or export GPG public key
$ gpg --export -a john will show the public key of john in the terminal - which is not convenient if you want to send it to someone.
$ gpg --export -a john > public.keywill export the public key to a file which you can send via email or published on a webpage1.
The option -a is short for --armor which, as stipulated in the manual of GnuPG, “takes output from commands and prints it in format that can be safely e-mailed.”2.

I do self-funded research and I'm writing a book.
> What's the book about?
About technologies and agency.
Meaning, technologies can foster agency. No doubt. But I am also asking:
Can usage of technologies give us a sense of empowerment while in fact undermining our abilities?
I posted a summary of the prologue on the homepage: https://yctct.com/
