#Haskell library and -client for working with #OpenTimestamps.
(OpenTimestamps is a protocol for creating and verifying timestamps for digital files, which can be used to prove that a file existed at a certain point in time.)
I'm contemplating using the dd command below to rejuvenate data – 'bit rot' – on my hard drive (the drive is *not* mounted):
dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/sdX bs=128M conv=sync status=progress
I'm wondering whether I really need a backup? (what would happen if e.g. the process gets interrupted?)
