Spent a bit of time during lunch outlining a cryptographically secure (???maybe???) sensitive content tagging system that is both plausibly deniable, and balances protecting consumers + creatives: https://codeberg.org/conjured/cauldron/issues/2

You can't search FOR something, but stuff can get filtered OUT (quietly)

@zkat Does something like this help you?

One imagined use case for that is for a "blind search" of a patent database, which is where you want to know if a patent exists but don't want to reveal your idea for a similar patent.

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to achieve, tbh, but it seems that there might be some overlap there.

@zkat this sounds rad. Is there anything I could read to help me understand the use of terms like "market stall" and "bazaar" in this context?

It's important to help folks avoid works that will genuinely leave them sobbing in a corner all weekend with flashbacks. That's legitimate!

But in this day and age, having obvious, visible content warnings means that malicious actors can just search for them and get works pulled down.

Agency! yay!

@smallcircles @badgefed this is a bit the opposite of the end goal here: we want things that are claimed by the seller but who only the search index can verify, and never expose
