> SLR photo chip -> Cryptographically Signed Image -> Blockchain or Other Trust System Documents Production of Image and with key system thar matches image to record, all alterations to image are documented on said blockchain/other trust system. Verifiable system for chain of custody. You can have a fully verified factual photo that is still a lie. Early pandemic had some great examples of this. Journalist wanted to show how crowded cities like NYC were despite distancing rules. So they took telephoto shots of people standing in line facing the camera. This squeezes the perspective and makes them look bunched up. Same photo taken with orthogonally to the line shows that people stand 6ft apart. Here’s an article that explains this in more depth: https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20210126/p2a/00m/0op/009000c https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20210126/p2a/00m/0op/00... You don’t even have to cheat that obviously. A photo can lie just by showing, say, a bunch of soldiers holding guns next to scared children. Oh no look at those scary foreign soldiers terorizing the populace! What you don’t see is the humanitarian aid truck behind them and the workers distributing food to those children. Turns out the soldiers were there to protect the aid process, not to terrorize children. This is not a technology problem.
