We’ve had photo manipulation without the need of a darkroom or skilled optical retouchers for 30 years, but weaponized photo manipulation has been a thing since Stalin’s censors airbrushed out Trotsky a century ago.
- jalgos_eminator 7y agoYes, this is true. However, good quality photo editing became relatively cheap and convincing in more recent years. So now you don't need to be a nation-state to be able to convincingly pull something like that off. You can just be some guy in a basement with $1000 worth of computing gear and experience using photoshop.
