A DOI to IPFS directory would be cool. Is it still a copyright violation if you write a hash, but don’t put a IPFS link?

If the argument holds that a hash is equivalent to holding/sharing the file, there’s some big problems for PhotoDNA given strict liability laws.

It's mostly freely readable. It's closed to publishing (gotta pay CrossRef or other licensees) and otherwise a pain to interface with.
