Can we still trust digital content without reservation? The “Snapshots” research project at the BCCM (Blockchain Competence Centre Mittweida) at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences is addressing this question with the aim of documenting web content in a traceable, transparent and tamper-proof manner.
Whether official announcements, press articles or social media posts – much of the information that influences our actions today appears exclusively online. But what if an important post is altered retrospectively or suddenly disappears? The “Snapshots” project, which is being carried out in collaboration with CGI Germany, is tackling the development of a solution to precisely this problem. The aim is to ensure that digital evidence of web content is immutable, verifiable and stored in a decentralised manner.
