@volkris @jensimmons The second would be a good idea, but not how C2PA wants to do it (inbuilt set of trusted CAs). For instance, there could be a way to link content to any (preferably DNSSEC-secured) domain name or and you could add the pubkeys of entities you trust to an “address book”.

@volkris @jensimmons I don’t like the hierarchical nature of DNS either. I would much prefer we use GNS (petname/web of trust based), but no one does.
The reason I suggested linking to DNS is so that people don’t have to set up their own “address books”. For instance, news outlets and bloggers etc can all sign things with their domains.

I'm not saying we should *rely* on that. Just that it's good to have it as an option for people who do trust institutions.
Also, independent bloggers/journalists often have their own domains too.
