I think that another important difference is that Canon-recorded images can be stored, archived, and consulted indefinitely, and by anyone, whereas human-recorded images cannot.
- dheera 11y agoMy point is, this difference/gap may be closed in the future by technology, so inaccuracy of eyewitness memory shouldn't be used as a basis for ethical justification. In 50 years we may be able to store images from the human eye, and/or use prosthetic eyes that fix blindness and serve both biological and digital functions at the same time.
