Cool Idea, can one use hashes like sha256 to prove that the article original content has not been modified? Is that already in IPFS?

- meehow 8y agoIt's already built-in. URLs in IPFS are Base32 encoded SHA-256 hashes https://docs.ipfs.io/guides/concepts/hashes/ https://docs.ipfs.io/guides/concepts/hashes/
- hcs 8y agoThat doesn't tell you anything about the original source, though, just the version that got put on IPFS.
- sdwisely 8y agowhich surely is the best possible without the original author signing it? All that can be assured is that the content that the person mirroring it and linking you to it is as they intended.
