It shouldn’t be that we panic about it and regulate the hell out.

We could use the opportunity to deploy robust systems of verification and validation to all digital works. One that allows for proving authenticity while respecting privacy if desired. For example… it’s insane in the US we revolve around a paper social security number that we know damn well isn’t unique. Or that it’s a massive pain in the ass for most people to even check the hash of a download.

Guess which we’ll do!
