If a video is already cryptographcally signed, then you can safely distribute the signature on an untrusted channel. Adding Blockchain into the mix is superfluous, and destroys scalability.

Actually, BLAKE2 was not a SHA-3 finalist, BLAKE was. Also, BLAKE3 is so significantly faster than it's probably worth waiting for (waiting for it to get vetted cryptanalysis-wise).

To rephrase: sentience is most likely a kind of emergent phenomenon of physics. Most likely true yet completely hand waving and inane.

To add to this, yes, distributed computing is full of really cool stuff. It's been pumping out tons of solutions to real-world scalability problems for decades. I get the feeling that a bunch of people are just now coming into the conv

Not without unfortunate tradeoffs. This motivated me to create PUREE ( https://puree.cc ). PUREE satisfies the "random-looking" goal, and in my (biased) opinion is easier to use than LUKS. "Plausibile deniability&qu

I like CoPilot's answer better than yours, and I think it's closer to what most people would do; clearly 0x3F is the wrong constant but the approach is good.

This is called a backdoor, whether you like it or not. Pinky-promising not to abuse the backdoor key doesn't make it not a backdoor. Backdoors will be abused by governments. Have we learned nothing from the Snowden leaks?

It's unclear what you're talking about then; edit and clarify. Even the most generous interpretation sounds like a backdoor.
