  "title": "Soft Redaction of Image Provenance via Zero-Knowledge Proofs",
  "summary": "Content provenance standards, such as C2PA, are increasingly used to attach signed records of origin, editing history, and rights to digital images. However, provenance transparency can conflict with privacy -- assertions that strengthen trust in an image may also reveal sensitive information about the creator or capture context. We propose soft redaction for image provenance: a mechanism that replaces sensitive provenance assertions with zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) of selected properties over",
