Beschreibung

This archival theoretic exploration of trust, disinformation, and blockchain delves into how computational information processing is supplanting traditional record keeping. The author considers the potential and limitations of blockchains as the technological embodiment of the moral defense of the record and as a means of restoring societal trust.
