Saw this posted over here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/163355 [https://sh.itjust.works/post/163355] sounds like a really fun concept that should be shared here too :D

This basically just means, the files themselves become the authentication.

I don't see a singe use-case, where you couldn't just use normal private-key encryption and just save the private key to a file somewhere else. And if you want to distribute it to multiple locations, so that you need all of them, then there are also encryption methods for that.

if nothing else, you could make a pretty fun digital treasure hunt or geocaching thing with it
