A signed picture of a person attests (at best) that the person is a person (not AI generated or photoshopped). It does nothing towards proving they are the right person for their passport.
- makeitdouble 4y agoYou are right, but does it need to secure absolutely every single aspect of the situation ? If an official agent takes a picture with it at an office and saves it to that person’s file, having a stamp saying it comes from the right camera and wasn’t altered post capture is good enough in 99.9% of the situations. Proving that person is actually who they say they are can be dealt with in other means.

I can't imagine a situation where you have a means of doing that and you can trust the official agent to perform it, but you can't trust the official agent to sign the image so you need the camera to do it.
