    I keep saying: none of this will end until we get a clean, cryptographically secure, government-backed way to ID who is sending us something, and it becomes an expectation to use it all the time for anything important. Which is why I have conspiracy theories about the conspiracy theories about government ID.

      sounds dystopian.

      You don’t even need to ID who is sending it, just that the content itself can provide some grounding in an authentic source.

      Like if a picture can say that it derives from an original photo captured by a camera signed with Canon’s credentials, and was changed in Photoshop in these specific ways and signed by Adobe…

      There is a group working on exactly this. It’s called C2PA.
