- AsymetricCom 13y agoNow I just have to trust their hashing algorithm..
- emhs 13y agoHashing is performed locally, probably via crypto.js, so you can verify it, I'd wager.

- diminish 13y agoyes you might be right, NIST standardized timestamping methods are themselves full of patents. And I believe Jury would accept only those + a certified authority which would want to be testify in front of Jury.

And I believe Jury would accept only those + a certified authority which would want to be testify in front of Jury. I think you've missed my point. I'm saying that the problem isn't the TIME of the prior art, it is proving to a civilian jury that prior art relates to a patent.
