   This is so insanely complex and requires placing trust in the correctness of so many pieces, many of them closed-source. And uploading every verified "developed" image to Apple's servers. And giving up full control of the software and hardware you "own". All to achieve a goal of "verifying" photons, which is only a part of the real problem of verifying the truth of an event that was photographed.

   I hope that companies and governments don't start forcing us to use this stuff by requiring it for their services.

      Because it’s impossible to implement this feature in open source and out in the open. It relies on a locked down image pipeline and hidden key.

         its impossible in closed source. there is no reason to believe it does what it says it does. only private keys in the chain need to remain secret.
