Abstract
A device may receive content data from a content provider, the content data including: data identifying content, and data for verifying that the content has not changed. The device may access a blockchain associated with the content data, the blockchain including validation information specifying instructions for validating the content. In addition, the device may perform, based on the validation information, validation of the content to determine a measure of confidence that the content is accurate and store results of the validation in the blockchain as a transaction. Based on the validation results, the device may perform an action.
Claims20
A method for validating content in a blockchain network, comprising:
- receiving, by a content validation device associated with the blockchain network and from a content provider device, first content data associated with a content provider,
- the first content data including data identifying content;
- generating, by the content validation device, second content data based upon the first content data,
- the second content data being used to facilitate content validation;
- identifying, by the content validation device, a blockchain associated with the first content data,
- where the blockchain contains validation information that includes an algorithm specifying instructions for validating the content;
- providing, by the content validation device and to a content validation node associated with the identified blockchain, the second content data;
- obtaining, by the content validation device and from the content validation node, validation results based upon the first content data and the second content data,
- where the validation results comprise an evaluation score based upon a combination of values from a plurality of parameters indicating a level of accuracy associated with the content, and
- where the combination of values associated with the plurality of parameters are determined using different weights;
- and
- providing, by the content validation device and to the content provider device, data used to display a validation indicator with the content,
- the validation indicator being based on the validation results.

A device for validating content in a blockchain network, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, implemented at least partially in hardware and operatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors configured to:
- receive, from a content provider device, first content data associated with a content provider,
- the first content data including data identifying content;
- identify a blockchain associated with the first content data;
- generate second content data based upon the first content data,
- the second content data being used to facilitate content validation;
- provide, to a content validation node associated with the identified blockchain, the second content data,
- where the blockchain contains validation information that includes and algorithm specifying instructions for validating the content;
- obtain, from the content validation node, validation results based upon the first content and the second content,
- where the validation results comprise an evaluation score based upon a combination of values associated with a plurality of parameters indicating a level of accuracy associated with the content, and
- where the combination of values associated with the plurality of parameters are determined using different weights;
- and
- provide to the content provider device, data used to display a validation indicator with the content,
- the validation indicator being based on the validation results.
13 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions for wireless communication, the one or more instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a content validation device in a blockchain network, cause the one or more processors to:
- identify a blockchain associated with first content data;
- receive, from a content provider device, first content data associated with a content provider,
- the first content data including data identifying content,
- the first content being associated with the identified blockchain, and
- where the blockchain contains validation information that includes an algorithm specifying instructions for validating the content;
- generate second content data based upon the first content data,
- the second content data being used to facilitate content validation;
- provide the second content data to a content validation node associated with the identified blockchain;
- obtain, from the content validation node, validation results based upon the first content and the second content,
- where the validation results comprise an evaluation score based upon a combination of values associated with a plurality of parameters indicating a level of accuracy associated with the content, and
- where the combination of values associated with the plurality of parameters are determined using different weights;
- and
- provide, to the content provider device, data used to display a validation indicator with the content,
- the validation indicator being based on the validation results.
