Difficulties of Timestamping Archived Web Pages
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that state-of-the-art services for creating trusted timestamps in blockchain-based networks do not adequately allow for timestamping of web pages. They accept data by value (e.g., images and text), but not by reference (e.g., URIs of web pages). Also, we discuss difficulties in repeatedly generating the same cryptographic hash value of an archived web page. We then introduce several requirements to be fulfilled in order to produce repeatable hash values for archived web pages.

Thumbnails of archived web pages as they appear in common browsers such as Firefox or Chrome can be useful to convey the nature of a web page and how it has changed over time. However, creating thumbnails for all archived web pages is not feasible for large collections, both in terms of time to create the thumbnails and space to store them. Furthermore, at least for the purposes of initial expl...
