Maybe it’s time to do something about confirming authenticity, rather than just accepting any old nonsense as evidence of anything.

We need a new generation of secure cameras with internal signing of images and video (to prevent manipulation), built in LIDAR (to make sure they’re not filming a screen), periodic external timestamps of data (so nothing can be changed after the supposed date), etc.
We’ve had fake photos for over 100 years at this point.
