After all, the whole point of public-key cryptography is to
communicate with another person. If we trust nobody, then why send
confidential information to another person?
This may not be entirely accurate anymore; for example we know that fully
homomorphic encryption is possible (Gentry), if a bit slow, and that
involves public key crypto but not actually sending confidential information
to anyone (at least with the current technology; secret key FHE might also
be possible).
