Then, when someone videos an atrocity, they need to choose between publishing publicly (risking retribution) or publishing anonymously (if they even know how) and risk being disbelieved.

Similar to how anonymous 'tip-off' stories with protected sources work in general at the moment — the media outlet put their own reputation on the line on the basis of the source & we trust (to a certain degree) reputable news outlets to validate & vet their sources correctly. This is true for stuff that's easily forgable at the moment, e.g. a whistle-blower releasing documents.
