Sadly this didn't work for Volkswagen when they "studied" for their emission tests.

I'd like to hear more about how that id computed. In the example given in your link, the eco-friendly route takes longer and seems to have more tuns.

I think NTFs would make sense in some cases by providing a publick ledger of properties. It would avoid situations like that when a Luton man got his home stolen from him: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-590

This whole project feels completely useless to me. The part of the river they are uncovering is right next to the canal of Burssels and in the middle of an industrial zone. https://www.google.com/maps/@50.9027531,4.4087
