How would it work in practice? How could they forbid me to edit an "authenticated" image (which is still just an array of numbers) on gimp, and publish the modified image as raw data? Wouldn't I be then "producing content" whose provenance is not authenticated?
As long as I have a functional C compiler that can read the files on my computer, I don't see how this C2PA thing can be effective at all.
- Schroedingersat 4y agoIf the OS refuses to provide the DRM'd byte stream to non approved software and the hardware refuses to boot an OS you own, what are you going to do?

It’ll be unsigned, so marked as “possibly edited” the way HTTP websites are marked by modern browsers as “possibly insecure”. The whole point is provenance chain - not to prevent any editing whatsoever or establish “DRM” that forbids the use of all images from a camera or something.
