Yes John exactly. Any page published on a WP site, like a news item for example, will be able to cryptographically prove (i.e. in a tamper proof way) exactly the time and date it was published.

This can be used to prevent plagiarism of unique content and from fake news stories emerging through cyclical reporting where the exact first source is not able to be determined.

It wont detect copycats or prevent them from copying it, but it should deter anyone from wanting to copy it as they will never be able to claim it as their own if you time and date stamp it, because they could not create a stamp of the same content or news that showed it was published any earlier than your version.

If you are submitting a patent application or an entry for a medical journal you would want this.
