Maybe, but did you here about all the topless photoshoots Scarlett Johansen has been doing? Neither have I, but I’ve certainly seen pictures of it, so it must have happened. Just don’t look at the fingers
The truth is subjective now. My reality is objectively the coolest, though.
Personally witnessed or it didn’t happen.
I’m guessing it wouldn’t work for a variety of reasons, but having cameras digitally sign the image+the metadata could be interesting.
They could make it difficult to open up the camera and extract its signing key, but only one person has to do it successfully for the entire system to be unusable.
In theory you could have a central authority that keeps track of cameras that have had their keys used for known-fake images, but then you’re trusting that authority not to invalidate someone’s keys for doing something they disagree with, and it still wouldn’t prevent someone from buying a camera, extracting its key themselves, and making fraudulent images with a fresh, trusted key.
