I don’t see this as a topic for a deployment document, so I’m not 
sure where you’re going with the question. If you depend on deployment 
characteristics/details to obtain important security/privacy/rights 
properties it is almost certainly too late and not going to be robust.

Given that we have object-based security in ICN (with selective 
encryption at the application layer) it seems that any solution that 
even minimally depends on where the bits wind up being transmitted or 
stored would not comport well with the architecture. In fact, these 
properties are a major part what sets ICN apart from IP-based CDN 
systems.

In the message below, I read in that the concern you are raising is 
about proving ownership and not protection against piracy, correct? Both 
need careful attention to the key management; the former in the 
distribution and lifetime of the encryption keys; the latter in the 
proof and ownership of the signing keys.

Maybe you could take another swipe at explaining the scenarios you are 
considering and how they might interact with how an ICN system gets 
deployed.
