How does that prove I am the original author? Can't I just download a work and sign it as my own?

How does that prove I am the original author? Can't I just download a work and sign it as my own?
- cebert 10mo agoLet’s consider a scenario where you’ve published a video with a public key, and you have a history of using that key for publishing your work. If someone else were to download that video, they wouldn’t be able to sign it because they lack the key. I believe the same principle applies to PDFs and ebooks.
