Sorry, let me connect the dots. A voice message is digitally stored communication. If it was signed then the authenticity of the message source could be validated. When verifying signatures, we use PKI with pre-installed trusted root certificates so that any party (a MITM) in between you and any other party cannot alter the communication without corrupting it.

    "convenient reference (to associate signatures) for famous people: Twitter/X profiles" is far from trustworthy.
    - karmakaze 3y ago
      I wasn't meaning that the Twitter/X profile would be the source, rather that the source (e.g. owned domain) could be listed on their official T/X profile for convenience. The digital signature would be tied to their owned domain not T/X.

        That bad news is: "Starting April 1, 2023 we began winding down our legacy Verification program and accounts that were verified under the previous criteria (active, notable, and authentic) will not retain a blue checkmark unless they are subscribed to X Premium."
