Most online services ask their users to trust them that they're being honest, and they usually
|
|
are. However, traditional social media platforms have the ability to <strong
|
|
>create forged content</strong> that can appear to be genuinely authored, but which are actually
|
|
counterfeit.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
On <Link external href="https://nostr.com/">Nostr</Link>, all your content is authenticated
|
|
using <strong>digital signatures</strong>, which cryptographically tie a particular person to
|
|
a given post or message.
|
|

|
The result is that you don't normally have to trust service providers not to tamper with the
|
|
information flowing through the network — instead, your client software can prove that a given
|
|
piece of data is authentic.
