AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

Originator Profile is a scheme that attaches cryptographically signed publisher information to web content and advertisements so the originating organization can be identified independently of the page on which an item appears. Signed profile data is issued to participating publishers and checked by browsers or downstream services, giving readers and advertising systems a machine-readable signal about who produced a piece of content.
