Let's see how to verify an OpenPGP signature.
+ +If you already have a signature you would like to verify, great! If not, let's use the following signature for the guide:
+-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
+
Hash: SHA256
+
+
I like pineapple.
+

-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
+
+
+Copy the above signature.
+ +Open the keyoxide.org/verify page and paste the signature in the corresponding field.
+Scroll down and press the VERIFY SIGNATURE button.
+Keyoxide lets you know the signature was verified and signed by a certain person.
+ +Sometimes, you want to know if a specific person or public key was used to create a signature. In this case, let's figure out if the message was signed by Yarmo's public key or his friend Wiktor's public key.
+ +Copy the following fingerprint:
+653909A2F0E37C106F5FAF546C8857E0D8E8F074
+Paste it in the Email / key id / fingerprint field under Public Key (3: HKP server) and press the big button again. It could not be verified. Guess it wasn't Wiktor who signed that message.
+ +Now, copy the following fingerprint:
+9f0048ac0b23301e1f77e994909f6bd6f80f485d
+Paste it in the same field and press the big button again. It did verify! It was Yarmo all along.
+ +You could try using different mechanisms of fetching keys, such as web key directory or copy-pasting a plaintext public key.
