  Hi Hacker News, this is the first blog post I’ve ever published. I’ve been sitting on this for a while, but reading a few comments on the MIT Moon Disaster post a few days ago convinced me to post, particularly:

  > “What are some ways to verify video integrity? …” (@photochemsyn)

  > “… It would be useful for some people to have cameras which do this at the moment of recording, along with GPS, cell location data, and so on, to get really bulletproof documentary footage. I don't want that built into my phone, necessarily…” (@samatman)

  > “Even just a verifiable time stamp would be a big win.” (@HPsquared)

  This is a topic I’m generally interested in, so I’d greatly appreciate discussion and constructive criticism on the ideas I’ve thrown out here. Thanks for reading!
