>Video and pictures will soon have no evidentiary value.
This is one bit that has a technological solution. Canon's had some version of this since the early 2000s: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/319787-REG/Canon_9314A001_DVK_E2_Data_Verification_Kit.html https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/319787-REG/Canon_9314...

- mzajc 2y agoThis is purely security by obscurity. I don't see why someone with motivation and capability to forge evidence wouldn't be able to forge these signatures, considering the private keys presumably come with the camera you buy.

- rocqua 2y agoIf you make it expensive enough to extract, and tie the private key to a real identity, then you can make it hard to abuse on scale. Here I mean that at point of sale you register yourself as owner for the camera. And you make extracting a key cost about a million. Then bulk forgeries won't happen.
