If you're interested, here's what I did. I stored the public key you gave me, {cvb64}, under the name of "{name}". However, I never save that name directly, but record it only in a disguised, "hashed" form: {ck}. I scrambled "{name}" by running it through a 1-way hashing function, which will always yield the same result: provided you know which function I'm using, and what the secret "salt" is that I add to all the input, a string of text which I keep protected and encrypted on my local hard drive.

If you'd like to change this default behavior, e.g. by instead allowing anyone to request your public key, except for those whom you explcitly block, I have also created a super secret administrative record for you to change various settings on your account. This is protected by a separate encryption key which I have generated for you; and this key which is itself encrypted with the password you entered earlier. Don't worry: I never saw that password you typed, since it was given to me already hashed and disguised (as something {len(passphrase)} characters long, ending in "{passphrase[:10]}"). Without that hashed passphrase, no one will be able to unlock the administration key; and without the administration key, they won't be able to find the hashed record I stored your user settings under, since I also salted that hash with your own hashed passphrase. Even if someone found the record I stored them under, they wouldn't be able to decrypt the existing settings; and if they can't do that, I won't let them overwrite the record.'''
