What if what was recorded or photographed, you don't want your identity associated with it due to its contents - e.g. whistleblowing classified government/state documents exposing horrific crimes against humanity? If no digital signature then it's automatically fake?
It doesn't seem to matter at the moment though anyhow, the corrupt establishment so far seems to be a good enough job suppressing what they don't want out and maintaining control.
- Kon-Peki 3y agoIt’s identifying the camera, not the photographer. Of course there’s going to be metadata that could tie a camera to an owner, and some organizations may have checkin/checkout procedures that tie the camera to a specific person that is supposed to be in possession of it. So… This camera owned by the New York Times, who only keeps track of the fact that an employee has a camera from the pool, not which camera in the pool. And if you’re not from some news organization, then I guess you’re in the burner camera category?
