about physical watermarking, redux
by Sampo Syreeni 02 Aug '21

02 Aug '21

Many years ago I posted an idea of mine about cryptographic physical watermarking of things, such as paper money, or maybe missiles. Whatnot. The idea was that you'd do some chaotic physical process in order to lay down a physical watermark, then image it, and finally digitally sign what was seen via asymmmetric cryptography. I imagined you'd then print the signature "on the bill" as a 2D barcode, to be verified. But I never worked out how you would deal with the inevitable "broken bill". I thought it'd take some kind of high end error correcting code. Now it finally came to me you don't need that at all. Instead, just repeat what you imaged from the bill, on the bill, verbatim, using whatever level of ECC you want, and then the signature. The verifier can utilize the digital, error corrected replica for hard crypto purposes, while separately verifying that it matches -- in any soft statistical knee -- a hard to mechanically replicate, unique signature, embedded in the "bill". My first and best idea about how to make this physical nonce is to mix a couple of dozen well cut differently fluorescent plastic fibers into the paper or plastic fiber pulp from which the bill/artifact is made. It would be rather difficult to replicate such a random arrangement of many fibers over, say, a 1200dpi scanned bill. Especially if the highest end scanner interferometrically made sure, that the fibers/chaff really are embedded in the paper, instead of having been printed on it. Any problems with my idea? I'd like to hear, especially since it has been a couple of decades coming. -- Sampo Syreeni, aka decoy - decoy(a)iki.fi, http://decoy.iki.fi/front +358-40-3751464, 025E D175 ABE5 027C 9494 EEB0 E090 8BA9 0509 85C2

Many great inventions were co-discoveries - calculus - evolution by natural-selections, etc. I have to wonder if APster markets isn't another one. Clearly Mongo knew about them though regarding them as a bug rather than a feature. Then STIFFS dotcom started sometime in the 1990's. Jim Bell's deathly silence every time they get mentioned is beginning to look suspicious. Another claimant / pretender / carpetbagger is the libertarian moron, Robin Hanson. Claims he was hawking networked prediction marts around various corporations in the early-mid 90's. WL dead-enders might want to claim him as a cypherpunk revolutionary. If the hairpiece fits... The Nazi-fag-Assmange-libertarian-moron credo is certainly clear enough by now... " From each according to their gullibility - to each according to their greed "

From Crossbows To Cryptography:Techno-Thwarting The State...

...is the most idiotic piece of pentagon propagand ever. Unsurprisingly written by a literal piece of US milintary shit and randroid criminal. No wonder right-wing tehcnofascists, silicon valley salesmen and fake 'libertarians' find it appealing. In the real world technology is the ultimate tool for the state to exterminate humanity, a process we are seeing in realtime.

Not to hard when you can quickly and easily nullify a jury. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwartzbard_trial So we may easily murder Gramps, Batshit Crazed and any other Fascist Moron that pops up. Semich? Cheerfully! Send them on their way to their Paultard Valhalla where they can enjoy Nazi-Fag relations with Mongo and John Galton.

Peace-loving Agorists may have forgotten their principles

The Venn diagram of ' Natural-rights anarchists ' ie Randite Morons, traditional liberals ( Prize Austro-libertarian Chumps ) and peaceful voluntary Agorists ( Paultards ) being so tight I'll make all of these three most toxic gasbags on this list - Gramps, Batshit and Karl - a peace-loving voluntary deal. If they stop telling lies about me I will stop telling the truth about them.

Perhaps then you should define and tell people here what you think it means before accusing others of whatever they freely do or don't think it means in relation to what you think it means. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTRKCXC0JFg So there it is. You, and the rest, define it.
