A unique identifier is assigned to each user, and a standard for evaluating the reliability of information dispatched on the Internet using the identifier to reveal the source of the information is achieved by: using the identifier as a search term, and acquiring a corresponding public key from information publicly available on the Internet; using the public key to verify a signature added to text information that includes the identifier; and confirming whether the source of the text information links back to the public key and the identifier. Thereby, an equivalence relation on the text information is established on the basis of the public key and identifier. |
