One of the greatest benefits to the Ethereum blockchain is that data can be immutably saved and it is censorship resistant. As we know, with Google, et al, when data that is not friendly to needs of Big Business/States, finding data that might be reported from hacks/leaks might be incredibly hard to find by the non-dark web user. Recently, we added the dataAndEventRegistry (https://github.com/ProofSuite/OrFeed/blob/master/contracts/dataAndEventOracleRegistry.sol) in which anyone can register an oracle with a unique name that is connected to smart contract logic for returning a string of what happened during an event or information for a file. Here's an example oracle SM (that can be used as a template for this) that will always return Satoshi's first message on the blockchain: https://github.com/ProofSuite/OrFeed/blob/master/contracts/examples/ProvideDataExamples/userRegisteredDateOrEventOracleExample.sol
We are seeking a similar contract that allows anyone to register (for free) a "theEvent" string that people can search by via your smart contract to register a string of what happened. For example "deep-fake-providers" as
theEvent1 parameter to your SC might return a list of open-source deep fake code/apps that are censored from Google and others... or a "Tiananmen-square-reports"theEvent` parameter might return data for what was reported globally there in the 80s for people in China who have access to the Ethereum chain, but not to websites/other sources regarding global media reports about it.For this issue, perhaps 3-5 preloaded events might be useful, while users can interface with it to add their own reference strings that are tied to data strings. Optionally, please leave your ideas in the proposal if you are headed over from Gitcoin.
We can then register your contract to OrFeed's data/event registry so people can ping your source/result they're seeking to get the information.
