Incredibly naive viewpoint. The mob / herd mentality is real, and often invoke reactions based on emotion and not facts or practicality. I can think of 10s of stories where lives have been ruined over misrepresentation of facts in the past 5-6 years. The most prominent example of this in my mind is when a reddit ps battle faked a cheerleader having diarrhea at a game. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cheerleader-accident/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cheerleader-accident/ She appeared on TV claiming this ruined her life. It was a single well edited photo. What can a video do? The general public still thinks faking video is outside of normal capability. The real problem is SWGIT will take years to catch up to deepfakes. If you include case law it will likely be decades. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_Working_Group_%E2%80%93_Imaging_Technology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_Working_Group_%E2%8... Worst case: You could probably go to jail if being placed at a crime, but more likely it will just ruin your life and/or your reputation with friends and your employer.
