| Stamp only proves you did the photo and probably some metadata like when where etc. It helps but doesn't solve credibility issue. |

| The credibility comes from who took the photo. The next logical and easy step is for this metadata to flow to the user agent. I'll know that it was taken by a legit journalist photographer. And id not, I can have my user agent make it fuzzy or replaced with
a kitten photo. |

| ▲ | Gigachad an hour ago | parent [-] | | I think this is where we are headed. This feature seems useless on it's own since someone will eventually find a way to extract the key from the iphone and sign any image. But if they could make it so every iphone uses it's own key and the photos show "Taken by xyz" and it's linked to their icloud or identity somehow. That way images shared around will still be able to be linked to a source that you can choose to trust and the viewer can know it wasn't modified from what that person shot. Then we might move to an age where photos which were not signed by someone will be treated as fake. | | |
