I've been thinking about this and I think a tricky part is editing, since naturally people are going to want to edit the video for normal reasons but I think that will mess with the signature?

This is why a sort of chain of evidence would be required.

If only we had some kind of decentralized consensus system that could help us formulate truth on a societal scale...
I sense you're being tongue-in-cheek, but how would something like blockchain help this situation? (I genuinely don't understand -- can you walk me through how that tech would validate a video's authenticity?) Second, it would only help to validate that a video was taken (and possibly that it was not modified? But I suspect a great deal of video footage gets modified after capture, for light balancing and whatnot.) B…

Decentralized reputation system that uses Proof of Stake to validate the "truthiness" of an individual. Users validate an idea/content by sharing some of their reputation to lend credibility to another.
Anyone know of technology to invisibly watermark video/audio? This would be great for enforcing copyright on sites like youtube.

Isn't think what PageRank is? I have a website; by linking to you, I am vouching in a public space that I believe in your truthiness?
