    If all that you’re interested in is the timestamp then you don’t even really need to have a signature at all - just the hash of the image is sufficient to prove when it was taken. The signature is only important if you care about trying to establish who took the picture, which in the case of this hospital explosion is not as important.

        You post it publicly somewhere that has a timestamp. A blockchain would be best because it can’t be tampered with.

          Ah, I thought you were saying the hash proved something on its own. Lots of weird ideas about crypto in this thread.
