So this basicly works because you can have a UID(email address) that is 2048 characters in your PGP key, and from what i understand an unlimited amount of UID's, perfect for dumping data on to the key-servers, Adding UID's is a slow process by hand so i automated it using python, so you could dump any kind of file on the key servers. with some simple modifactions you can dump plain text on to the key-servers containing any content you choose and watch it propogate through all the key-servers around the world. Once that has completed, the data is essentially impossible to be removed as said by the sks key-server creator him self [Kristian Fiskerstrand](https://blog.sumptuouscapital.com/2016/03/openpgp-certificates-can-not-be-deleted-from-keyservers/).

I wrote this because i think this charactaristic of key-servers is actually dangerous, for example someone could upload leaked data and it would be spread around the world and accessible by anyone and unstoppable, how would this situation be delt with?
