[slightly OT] How to secure your web pages from tampering

Hi all,

let’s assume you are a privacy enthusiast, Cypherpunk etc. and want to be sure that nobody can tamper with your web page articles or in case you made an invention you published and someone else stole your content and claims he is the author.

With mfv it is hopefully impossible for third parties to tamper with your web content.

Hope you like!

For my little website oc2mx.net I have also included in the html source
the page filename and my domain, so that this information is also included
in the hashes and timestamps.

Perfect! My system works as expected!

I used cURL to get all four files, like described in the README,
and here is the result:

merkle_metadata.json.ots 479 B
Stamped SHA256 hash: c7e2a9b7c17e1466e53734c8f5089657bebaf7082e73c995b2ab1cf2f0b0c925

merkle_metadata.json 2.0 kB
SHA256: c7e2a9b7c17e1466e53734c8f5089657bebaf7082e73c995b2ab1cf2f0b0c925

SUCCESS!

cURL is no longer needed, because mfvc v0.3.0 has a —download parameter.
