BookVerify
Cryptographically sign Written Books to verify the authenticity of their title, author, and content.
Use Case
If you are running a server where players have access to Creative-Mode*, it is possible to easily edit a (signed) Written Book's information such as the title, author, and content. For example, players can spoof a Written Book's author and accuse someone else of writing malicious content within the book. BookVerify is a solution to this problem. Players are easily able to know if a Written Book has been spoofed/forged.
*This plugin is only needed for Creative-Mode servers. Modifying Written Books and their content when in Survival-Mode is not possible without additional server plugins.
