"More simply, a hash value is a string of characters obtained by processing the contents of a given computer file and assigning a sequence of numbers and letters that correspond to the file’s contents."
From 2018 in United States v. Reddick.
- kwanbix 2y agoThe calculation is what assigns the value.
- toyg 2y agoYes, Google's calculation.
- oefnak 2y agoDid Google invent this hash?
- chaps 2y agoWhy is that relevant? Google used a hashing function to persist a new record within a database. They created a record for this. Like I said in a sib. comment, this FOIA lawsuit goes into questions of hashing pretty well: https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-2nd-circuit/2185910.html https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-2nd-circuit/2185910.htm...

- chaps 2y agoNo. The calculation is what determines what the assignation should be. It does not actually assign anything. This FOIA litigation by ACLU v ICE goes into this topic quite a lot: https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-2nd-circuit/2185910.html https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-2nd-circuit/2185910.htm...
