I've been working (admittedly, with AI assistance) on HTTP signatures RFC 9421 support. The work will be done in stages. The first step is ensuring NodeBB can handle receipt of activities signed under the new standard (with adequate fallback to draft cavage-12). Afterwards NodeBB will begin sending out activities signed with both methods. Question re: double knock for AP devs who have implemented... is there a specific reason 9421-signed is sent first, and then cavage-12? My understanding is the headers are separate — Signature-Input vs Signature, though there are two of the latter. It seems possible to send both signatures at once.

#FBI Has Looked at Using Questionable #AI Tech to Review #Signatures on Seized Mail-In #Ballots The FBI has explored using artificial intelligence to assess the validity of signatures on tens of thousands of mail-in ballot envelopes seized from #FultonCounty, #Georgia , the latest push in the #Trump administration’s unprecedented reinvestigation of the 2020 #vote. The effort, according to internal communications reviewed by ProPublica and an agency tech specialist familiar with the work, focuses on comparing signatures on ballot envelopes with signatures on other #election documents, such as registration forms. President #DonaldTrump has long claimed, without evidence, that the 2020 election was stolen from him. #maga https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-2020-election-georgia-fulton-artificial-intelligence-fbi
