This may be the perfect tool
Maybe. But that “may” is a big MAY, like @IP2@monero.town commented elsewhere. Even for PGP, so classic and so established, “Are there any back doors in PGP?” is FAQ #1.
Absolutely. The developer seems adamant about it too. Pretty Good Privacy is what PGP stands for and that’s the best we can get. Not absolute, not amazing, not extremely good. Pretty good with careful planning can get good enough in most cases. It takes work and it never gets easy sadly.
