The problem may not be that manipulated images are used to convince people that X is real or Y did Z, but that anything inconvenient can be written off, something that would require an order of magnitude less effort than employing the technology itself. This issue, of course, has always existed, to a degree, but now we exist in a state that is an unprecedented, in my opinion, acceleration of such tendencies. In a few decades, will it still be possible for there to be a reaction like that which came about from the video of the beating of Rodney King?
