  * YAKMESH™ Content Store
- * Content-addressed storage with consensus proofs

- * Provides public content delivery while maintaining mesh security:
- * - Content addressed by hash (trustless verification)
- * - Consensus proofs for light client verification
- * - Edge caching for instant public access
- * - Mesh sync for decentralized replication
+ * Content validity is determined by math, not votes:
+ * - Integrity: SHA3-256 hash of content matches claimed hash
+ * - Authorship: Publisher's ML-DSA-65 signature over the hash
+ * - Any node can independently verify both — one proof = proven
+ * 
+ * No voting. No quorum. No 51% attack surface.
+ * "The math checks out" is the only consensus needed.
