That's not the kind of verification I'm going for. What I'm talking about is an optional voluntary way for people who are crossposting or reposting their own blog or photos or anything else, stuff that is already accessible on the internet elsewhere, to verify it's them. This is so upvoters will know they aren't supporting a thief who is simply taking them and claiming them as their own. In theory, there would be incentive to verify one's self when reposting or crossposting.
