Partial Encryption Porn DApp Idea

http://www.igi-global.com/dictionary/partial-encryption/21897

You would need to create a tool that would randomly partially encrypt a photo or a video.

It would be loaded onto IPFS

Like Bitcoin ransomeware it would be given a price (but in this case given a price by the creator)

Anyone could donate and the info would be public.

Once the price is paid the partial encryption would change to full decryption and anyone could access the content.

At that point the contract would pay the creator.

If the full price was never paid the content would never be decrypted.

Could also be used for music, books, and digital art...

Technically bad?

No, the concept sounds good. When I read the word "ransomware" in it that sounds shady to me. Don't get me wrong, for the other ideas you're suggesting sounds awesome (music, books, digital art, etc...). I think like everything else, there's two sides to it.

Oh sorry I was just using that as an example it would be like reverse ransomware so more like a bounty, bc the creator would be creating his own ransom for his/her own content, so when the ransom was paid they would be paid!

(In the idea anyway but I have no idea if this whole thing would be possible bc I don't know if you could even store encrypted or partially encrypted stuff in IPFS for example)

Yeah I get it, definitely possible. Maybe you can create a contract for content creators where it is defined within the contract the parts of the content to be released without meeting the total circumstances on which to release the whole content, minimum requirements met (accessing the content but not completely). Its a little more complicated than that but that's the idea and it can all be written in code. Hope it helps.
