Full Disclosure: Re: stealing ssh keys

["Thor (Hammer of God)" <thor () hammerofgod com>]

I think you're over reacting just a bit.  You can give out your private key to whomever/whatever you want to be able to 
decrypt data encrypted with the public key.  It all depends on the use-case, and what you want done.  Just because its 
a private key doesn't mean it's automatically some critical security component.   Many times it is, but it doesn't have 
to be.
