Citizens Journalist is the blockchain solution to combat fake news. It is impossible to identify fake news, so we provide the platform for authenticating genuine news.
We utilize the blockchain public ledger to store recorded content on our servers. Simple javascript, Facebook, or browser add-ins can certify the legitimacy of the captured content
Whatever the media content, video, photographic or audio, the critical metadata that accompanies the content is: Who did the recording? On what device? Where was the media recorded, and at what time?
Although the Citizens Journalist app is primarily for video recordings, it can also be utilized for audio recordings or multiple photographs captured with your mobile device.
The strength of media recorded within the Citizens Journalist app is that it is encrypted on the device, so it cannot be hacked or changed.
Democracy has never been more under threat from demagogues and populism. For democracy to work, it needs a strong fourth estate to hold executives to account. The press must be guardians of truth, and through the eyes of the people, those in power can be held accountable for their actions.
