Hi cpunks,
I'm trying to figure out how to produce lengthy recordings that cannot be reasonably removed or altered even by a very powerful entity. I'd like to find a way to make it easy for myself and others to live a life where if the forces of authority attack you, their only option for covering it up is creating a noticeable, diagnosable, recording hole in advance.
I've started work on
https://github.com/xloem/openrealrecord . I was wondering if anybody would have the time to review my plan and comment on it. I'm using hyperdb to create a network of binary streams that all checkpoint each other. It allows data to be piped in from the command line. I have a few issues and todo items laid out to solve remaining issues I've thought of: for example, posting checkpoint hashes and p2p seed ips to the bitcoin blockchain, or integrating with siacoin/storj/filecoin for reliable storage.
I'm losing my mind for a number of reasons, and likely won't be able to finish this on my own, so I've started offering largish bounties; just on the blockchain hashing at first. It would be incredible if somebody with a mind for security could help me finish the essentials of this project; I'd be happy to add more bounties if needed. But even a quick comment would be so kind.
