Like a safe-deposit box for your info, if you don't trust your Bank or coopérative de crédit.
When you haven't signed in to razz anyone in a personally-decided amount of time, your HB account releases a previously-generated Idea containing all of the incriminating evidence from your special field.
Although
I cannot personally create the code, I feel sure that one of you clever so-and-sos can create us a neat little add-on.
A Court-Jestery half-baked Idea is of course the perfect camouflage for actual facts, in the same way that the only people who can somewhat safely tell 'truth to power' right now are comedians.
Not quite the same idea ...

Also, this.

This one seems to be an academic idea, rather than an actual product on the market. [pertinax, May 04 2024]

[21 Quest], please tell us you didn't travel (obviously not by Boeing!) from Spokane to the Wichita factory and end up deleted. |

Do we have anyone with conceivable access to any particularly valuable (dangerous if released to any individual or group of note with any reach or power) secrets here? .. I don't think we do? |
|
| |
But if if we did that could be a dangerous idea for the site hosting it, if knowledge that such things were held was public domain (which it would be after the first release if not somewhat sooner, you have to let people know a service exists for anyone to use it, a big problem for keeping it secrete that) it could conceivably attract efforts to shut it down, destroy or steal the information.. by illegal, legal and legislative means. |
|
| |
Just look at what happened to WikiLeaks and its founder, which isn't a million miles from this. |
|
| |
The only people that might still be found with no fear of running a service like this (for people that actually had any worthwhile secrets to tell) might only be found among the ranks of Anonymous now, and would you trust those guys not to dig it out ahead of time just for the hell of it? ;) |

| |
Don't get me wrong [Sarge] I like the idea, I'm just perceiving a few issues that may need consideration. |
|
| |
All good points [Skewed]; my idea is about releasing the actual knowledge as a half-baked idea to provide plausible deniability. |
|

There's a psychological effect that happens when you tell the truth about conspiracies--the observers automatically discount the truth as a joke or an impossibility. That is the expected effect here, since how will the public know which idea is the result of the HB DeadMan LockBox idea, and which ideas are just regular ridiculous ideas?! |
|
| |
Of course, once the HBDMLB add-on is in place, my idea for it will be deleted, thus securing the safety of the HB server by leading observers to wonder if the artifacts found in the WayBack machine or similar are really evidence of this idea, or AI spambot junk. |

As per the links, this looks like a job for blockchain technology. However, drawbacks might include ... |

It's unlikely your blockchain is as secure as the hype would like you to believe, besides, it's supposed to be readable by all and sundry right, that's how it authenticates its transactions peer-to-peer is it not? so how then would you propose to use it to secure some information from prying eyes and then release it when a specific individual joins the Norwegian Blue in the hereafter [pert]? |

You're not just using buzz words as magic are you? ;) |
