This is exactly what I'm talking about and exactly what cryptographic signatures solve. Really important stuff is probably signed cryptographically already, DocuSign and all that.I’ve probably signed 100 documents where it would actually be hard to prove I was there and signed it. A lot of stuff doesn’t require a notary** or they have security camera footage or something, if the signatures not identifiable I think it’d be somewhat difficult to prove that X is you.
(** also notaries are kinda bullshit too. Everyone I know seems to have someone who will notarize shit without really verifying identities and such)
There should be a standard for accepting digital sigs on forms, both electronic and paper.
