Humans can be cheaper than robots if properly exploited!

Uhhh it definitely is. I literally have a Linux terminal running on my Android phone.

That’s not merch, that’s the Veil of Veronica. Very significant catholic story/artifact. The story is that when she wiped the blood and sweat off of Jesus his face appeared on the cloth. You’ll find depictions of this in most old catholic churches and many paintings

Exactly, so the people in favor of keeping the fucked up system are part of the problem

Who cares? We shouldn’t have the choices on the ballot being both choices that the majority of Americans don’t want

Disagree. Most servers and bartenders are in favor of tipping culture and want it to stay this way with zero wages and societally enforced tips.

Yes, the corporations are the enemy, but these other struggling people are on the side of the actual enemy.

It’s not. Wait till you find out how they made movies before CGI!

A MAC is symmetric and can thus only be verified by you or somebody who you trust to not misuse or leak the key.

You sign them against a known public key, so anybody can verify them.

Regular digital signatures is what’s needed here You can still use such a signing circuit but treat it as an attestation by the camera’s owner, not as independent proof of authenticity.

If it’s just the cameras owner attesting, then just have them sign it. No need for expensive complicated circuits and regulations forcing these into existence.

I think you are misunderstanding things or don’t know shit about cryptography. Why the fuck are y even talking about publicly unlockable encryption, this is a use case for verification like a MAC signature, not any kind of encryption.

And no, your process is wild. The actual answer is just replace the sensor input to the same encryption circuits. That is trivial if you own and have control over your own device. For your scheme to work, personal ownership rights would have to be severely hampered.

All of this could be done without blockchain. Once they sign a signature with their private key they can’t unsign it later. Once you attest something you cannot un-attest it.

Just make the public key known and sign things. Please stop shoehorning blockchain where it doesn’t belong, especially when you aren’t even giving any examples of things that blockchain is doing for you with 100000x the cost and complexity, that normal crypto from the 80s/90s cant do better.

Just because you’re writing this on the fediverse doesn’t mean it’s the answer to everything. It’s certainly not the answer to this.

If you’ve been saying this for a long time please stop. This will solve nothing. It will be trivial to bypass for malicious actors and just hampers normal consumers.

1. Anybody can also verify it if they just host the hash on their own website, or host the video itself.
2. Getting the general populace to understand block chain implementations or how to interface with it is an unrealistic task
3. What does a distributed zero trust model add to something that is inherently centralized requiring trust in only 1 party

Blockchain is the opposite of what you want for this problem, I’m not sure why people bring this up now. People need to take an introductory cryptography course before saying to use blockchain everywhere.

First blame the thief. But then in the same breath blame the manufacturers that refuse to sell cars with meaningfully working locks. If you understand the tech many car companies keep selling cars that have locks that are about as secure as a zip tie.

The US has not had uncontrolled gun distribution and nobody is asking for that. You can’t legally buy a gun without a background check and more, and it has been this way for decades.

The cost of complying with the dozens of legal hoops is often like 10-20x or more than the price of just a cheap pistol itself.

Larger financial barriers just mean if you’re rich you can do what you want and if you’re not, you’re fucked, which often leads to people breaking these dumb laws and the cycle getting worse.

No, you can’t. Hawaii is not a shall-issue state. It’s pretty much impossible to get a permit there. Also, criminals won’t be getting permits so why should we make law abiding citizens get them.

Make the bad thing illegal. Don’t make the tools or the intermediate steps illegal

Bro you can make an ak-47 out of a shovel.

The FGC-9 is a gun designed to be built only from common hardware store tools and a shitty 3d printer and has been used by even the myanmar rebel forces who built it themselves. (Also you can build 3d printers themselves from hardware store and hobbyist electronics store supplies).

Guns are just metal tubes with some extra bits, as knowledge and materials get better, making them gets easier. You’re making this statement like it hasn’t been a common thing for years

It wouldn’t if it had more candela. But low lumens and low candela means it ain’t doing shit past 20 feet.

I think he means more like an arms length or enough to walk around it. Not a full on yard.
