> We've had photo and audio manipulation for many decades now. We haven't been able to generate 1,000 different forged variants of the same speech in a day before. > We have certain publications and sources we trust, whether they're the NYT or a respected industry blog. We can't even be sure that most of these aren't changing old stories, unless we notice and check archive.org, and they haven't had them deleted from the archive. The NYT has blockchain verification, but the reason nobody else does is because no one else wants to. They want to be free to change old stories.

> but the reason nobody else does is because no one else wants to. They want to be free to change old stories. You're wildly assuming a motive with zero evidence. No, the reason companies aren't building blockchain verification of their stories is simply because it's expensive and complicated to do, for literally zero commercial benefit. Archive.org already will prove any difference to you, and it's much easier to use/verify than any blockchain technology.
