No use case I can think of, but a credible scenario is an attacker somehow being able to manipulate the size parameter, due to another vulnerability, and then being able to further exploit the overflow. Quite a few recent practical attacks

There would have been huge flooding anyway, it's pretty unclear if the dam failure added to the death toll. With one meter of rain in a few hours, very little infrastructure stood a chance anyway...

Not discussed in the article, but did the dam failure add that much to the body count? Such apocalyptic rain would have meant desolation anyway...

Since it is based on the same basic principles but in a much superior fashion, I, and everyone using Bitcoin-based timestamps, am comfortable in believing there's a excellent chance the courts will not be unaccountably incompetent and

Not what I asked. I asked if there was any evidence indicating that courts would reject Bitcoin timestamping despite being based on the same concepts, and in several ways superior to, the old-fashioned centralized timestampers. To which yo

Well the use of digital certificats for timestamping is explicitely covered in Directive 1999/93/EC [1]. I'll freely admit not being up to date on the situation on the other side of the Atlantic. While Bitcoins may start to g

Decentralized no, but free and scriptable yes E.g. https://startssl.com/?app=25#61 Decentralized not usable in a legal context in any jurisdiction I can think of, and why do you timestamp if not to cover your ass?

Talking cryptographic timestamping and talking only about random brodude startups and not about established, working standard like RFC 3161/3628 and the many digital notaries offering the service... Seriously?
