#tech blogs, #writing blogs, #science blogs, #music blogs, #literature blogs, #newsbusiness blogs (erm, maybe), #book blogs. Bring them all back. I'll host them if you can't.

I wonder when the #NewsBusiness is going to get their #reporters to cryptographicly sign their #NewsStories with a built in #SHA512 module in all major #webbrowsers #W3C #IEEE #RFE #disinformation campaign fights #opensourcesoftware & extend this to #RSS readers also? ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿค”

ยน Perhaps this #SHA512 generates a hash of 'the web page and the images / videos used' so that the whole thing can be 'verified by the #NewsOrganization & #TheReporter' as a cross signed #VerifiedNewsStory so one could, as a reader, know iF this has been modified via #MITM or not, showing the story as a #TrustedNewsStory?

ยฒ Perhaps simple, well established iconography, such as the lock ๐Ÿ”“๐Ÿ”’๐Ÿ—๏ธ, color coded red or grey or green, could be used to show this like it does already for HTTPS?

ยณ Perhaps there is a #GPGP module that could be adapted for this purposes since there is a GPGP.js, init? #UIUX thots

โต #LoT (A per news organization #LedgerOfThings utilizing current #Blockchain technologies but on a per #NewsOrganizationLevelBlockchain that could interoperate with a master #NewsLoT for verification purposes that is country specific as well as regional specific as well as world level news #LoT specific for verification purposes ๐Ÿ“ฐ๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Why BuzzFeed and Vice Couldnโ€™t Make News Work

The darling digital upstarts of the 2010s invested heavily in journalism, racking up scoops and awards, but unlike The New York Times, werenโ€™t built to weather industry upheaval.
