  • I don’t mean cameras. I’m thinking of easy to use signature apps that allow anyone to authenticate sources and you get to decide whether you trust the source or not. The forward from klandma wouldn’t be sourced or maybe by klan news, while you could disregard any “oh my god I’m in the hospital please send monies” picture that isn’t signed.






  • Pretty crazy there’s no PKI in place to verify photos, videos, or text. We just need apps to verify signatures and tell users about the origin. Memes can remain unsigned, but veritable information should always be traceable to a source.

    E.g. I’m more inclined to believe a video sourced by AP (sent to me by whomever) than one posted by the white house twitter without signature.
