Allow a coalition of people, not necessarily from the Board, to revoke our signing key in case everybody or almost everybody from the Board becomes unavailable.
Make it hard for a coalition of people not from the Board to revoke our signing key unless everybody or almost everybody from the Board becomes unavailable.
Request everybody to delete their previous share and track this.Once everybody in 2 groups amongst B, C, or D have deleted their share, it becomes impossible for them to reassemble the revocation certificate with the previous set of shares.
There is no expiry date on revocation certificates. One way of cancelling the revocation power is to destroy all copies of shares of 2 groups amongst B, C, or D.
On top of this, we defined three complementary groups, B, C, and D of trusted people who have a close relationship with Tails but different interests and different access to information about us. You are part of one of these groups.
Feel free to back up the file but we might also request you to delete it at some point and you should be able to know whether you still have a copy of it or not. It is all-right to lose your share as long as you tell us that you have lost it. It is actually worse to still have a copy of the share "somewhere" while thinking that you don't, than to lose it by mistake.
