Trust in governments and businesses was already strained heading into 2020, but the global pandemic has ripped trust in two different directions. The pandemic shows that trusting others with information and media control can protect us, but information control can also be used against us. As targeted social media and fake video technology further erodes trust, blockchain technology is becoming a promising tool to help replace it. Symbol blockchain is an especially practical and efficient way to ensure that any file or data is authentic and hasn't been tampered with. It has potential uses in online IDs, source verification, and all kinds of information media.
