⬇️ My Thoughts ⬇️
🔍 The challenge with e-commerce privacy lies in two main areas:
1️⃣ Keeping search queries private 🔒
2️⃣ Protecting personal info like name and address 🙅♂️
Traditional platforms require us to trust them with this data
🛒 E-commerce & Privacy - Myth or Reality? 🔐
💻 Online shopping without revealing your personal data?
🚀 Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP), zkLocus and Mina Protocol blockchain enable just that

Here's how 🧵👇

🚨 By using Mina Protocol as a public layer for computation proofs, we create an auditable & transparent system 🕵️♀️
Anyone can verify that the cameras are operating as promised, without misusing the video data 🔍

📋 Here's how Mina Protocol blockchain fits into the picture:
1️⃣ zkSNARK circuits verifying camera code execution are stored on Mina
2️⃣ Commitments & ZKP circuits to the zkML model are also stored on the blockchain
3️⃣ All proofs from cameras are submitted & verified against them

3️⃣ All proofs from cameras are submitted & verified against them
🟣 Mina Protocol can implement the foundational layer 🚀
Verification keys that attest to the correct execution of the camera's code can be stored on $MINA 🔑
In practice, this involves commitments and ZKP circuits to the zkML model, thus ensuring the right one is used 🧠

🔐 zkSNARKs/zkSTARKs can be used to create ZK proofs that attest to the correct execution of the camera's code 📸
👮♀️ These proofs, representing an observation of a computation, ensure that non-suspicious video is discarded, thus preserving privacy
👉 Do not trust, verify 👈

🧩 Here's how a ZKP-powered surveillance system works:
1️⃣ Cameras feed live video into a zkML model
2️⃣ The model labels data as "suspicious" or "non-suspicious"
3️⃣ Only "suspicious" footage is stored & reported
4️⃣ The zkML model is public, ensuring transparency

🔍 The key lies in the verifiable computation model of Zero-Knowledge Proofs 🔑
Instead of trusting third-parties not to misuse data, we rely on cryptographic proofs to ensure privacy 💪
It's not about faith, but rather mathematical certainty 🧮

📹 Imagine a global network of video cameras, monitoring every corner, every alley, even inside your home 🏠
Sounds like a privacy nightmare, right? 😨
Not necessarily! 😮
With ZKP, we can mathematically guarantee that private data is never stored or shared! 🔐

Linguistic vocal communication is such a wild concept 🤯
Like, I can take an abstract concept that I have in my mind, transform it into vibrations, transmit it wirelessly over air and have another individual parse it back into a similar abstract concept, now in their mind

💡 Zero-Knowledge Proofs fix digital privacy 🌅
Instead of protecting sensitive data after sharing, ZKPs enable sharing data in an inherently private manner 🔐
By turning data into computation, ZKPs abstract it to preserve privacy 🧩

💡 The problem with digital privacy lies not in how data is stored & shared, but what data is shared 🤔
Even with encryption, once sensitive data leaves your device, it's compromised 😱
But what if we could share data in an inherently private manner? 🤯
