Just a random thought - maybe there is a way to nail hard the point that "you cannot have security if you're lazy"? The society expects people to do driving licenses before getting behind the wheel. Why not expect people to put some amount of effort to be able to get mortgage or interact with court, etc.? Sure, many people will screw this up, but maybe this will be enough to secure majority.

(confession: I myself am too lazy to use PGP)

Counter example: I'm not too lazy to use HTTPS.

Maybe if email encryption was more like HTTPS more people would use it? Just transparent and easy.

Sure, but the point of a lot of comments here seems to be that It Can't Be Done.

It certainly can be done.

It's just that lots of people think HTTPS security is not good enough. (And you can include me on that set.)

I started this project https://github.com/abemassry/wsend-gpg and while it's not the easiest to use I'm sure it can be improved. There's no key exchange either but there has to be a quick and easy solution that people can use if we work on it a little more.
