Trust. If the root signatory is CNN, you decide whether you trust CNN not to do that.
Not really any different from other encryption. Your bank could be defrauding you on the back end despite the verified https session. But you trust they aren't.
- filleokus 6y agoWhy do we need to sign the video then? Isn't it enough for me to ensure that I have a secure TLS connection to https://cnn.com https://cnn.com? Maybe for external platforms? But then the challenge is just proving that https://www.youtube.com/user/CNN/ https://www.youtube.com/user/CNN/ is controlled by CNN. Much simpler than involving the cameras.
