Can you combine the Hash-Addressable File Storage in Blossom (by nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr) with the kind of Web-of-Trust truth seeking nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft is doing in Wikifreedia?
As in: can you have the Hash as the identifier of a file, then let anyone upload it to any server (or even P2P) and then let your WoT point you to who the worthy npub behind that file is?
If the answer is YES, then that would technically enable the hosting of 3D printed guns, Taylor Swift songs and other illegal files in a discoverable way. This, without the npub(s) getting zapped for it being liable and with the files hosted on a decentralized list of servers (or P2P) on which the addresses can be published by anons.
I'm, of course, asking this for a naïve friend who desperately wants to understand this and avoid jail 😉. #WoT #Blossom #torrent
exactly what nostr:npub1pu3vqm4vzqpxsnhuc684dp2qaq6z69sf65yte4p39spcucv5lzmqswtfch said. once you have the hash you don't really need to find the owner.
However assuming you wanted to find the owner so you could send them some sats. you could search the nostr protocol for any 1063 events and who they where signed by. then filter that down by your WOT. That would show you who in your WOT "claimed" to own the file
Also If you where looking for the torrent hash or magnet link for a file. then signed 1063 events that contain the sha256 hash and torrent details could be a perfect bridge between a files sha256 hash and other P2P protocols like torrents or IPFS
Once you have a file ID you can use nostr to start advertising where it is or any other metadata around it
Damn, that is huge!
Thanks fir explain ING man 🙏
