Unless you can find a way to weave cryptography into light, it will always be possible to trick a video camera into recording something that is "fake". Trust is what society is built upon, we're not going to get away from it now.
- kakarot 8y agoYes, I don't know if this problem can be solved, but it would be folly if no one was trying to crack it. We should always pursue ways to remove trust from vital social systems.
- topmonk 8y agoHow about a government enforced mandate that everyone gets a secure computer embedded into their skull in a way that removal will kill them, with a camera that continuously records video, sound and GPS positioning? This could then digitally signed and timestamped by the individual's computer. Then, when a questionable event happens, the video of all participants and anyone nearby can be replayed. Then, all videos of participants can be replayed to make sure they match up, and the video of the time leading up to the event could be scrutinized. Furthermore any one who visited that area in the recent past could be checked to make sure they didn't create some sort of hologram or something that the participants watched rather than the real thing.
